No matter where we roam, out hearts and minds contain a piece of Mt. Carmel and the feast with us. Growing up in Williamsburg was special. Memories of the feast, the Giglio, the neighborhood and friends are even more special.

I sat on the Giglio back in the late fortys,while my father grandfather and uncles were lifting and dancing the saint,my cousin Tuddy Ferera was the singer of the O'Giglio,being there for the first lift Sunday brought tears to my eyes & heart,as always,this may be the last time for me now that I'm in my 60's and so far away,but my heart an mind will always be there,Anthony Denicola

I was unable to fly up for the Feast this year, so an old and dear friend called to let me hear the giglio song during the lift. Reminded of how my brother, James Lapolla, used to do that for me. I miss both him and the Feast so much. Would love to hear from any former classmates or neighborhood old friends. kathyroom_222@yahoo.com

Couldn't be there in person for the lift this year, but a very dear friend called to let me hear the giglio song, just as my late brother, James Lapolla used to do. Miss both him and the Feast very much. Would love to hear from any old OLMC or neighborhood friends. I'll always be a Brooklyn girl and cherish wonderful memories of the old neighborhood....so grateful I lived there THEN! kathyroom_222@yahoo.com
