Iwo Jima - 68 years ago - Feb 19


On Feb 19th, it will be 68 years since the flag was raised on Iwo Jima and one year since Jerry left us. Special commemorative events will be held in CT on Sat and Sun, Feb 23, and Feb 24.

This day will be one of prayers for those who fought with Jerry on Iwo Jima. He always said that the real heroes did not come home.


An anniversary Mass for Jerry will be held 10:30 AM on Sunday, Mar 2 at St Michael's Church in Smithfield, RI.
