Hello All, I'm a graduate of St Celilia's 1965. I would love to see all the student's from my class (We had two 8th grade classes then) Does anyone remember Mr. Geighan, English non-brother teacher? He was my fav and an inspiration to me. I had many friends but the ones that I truly remember best are Henry Galiano, Efrain Cortez, Eugenio Rivera, Leland Paul, Michael Roman (the singer), James Braxton and Louis Matos. If I left anyone out please forgive me-it was so long ago. What a wonderful time to be born; I'll never forget those years. Even the harsh discipline of the brothers was all part of the memory. It helped to keep us walking a straight path. Viva El Barrio! 2 June 2011 - Southbury, Ct

Congratulations to St. Cecilia’s Parish on having Fr. Peter Mushi assigned to you as your new pastor. Just wanted you to know, that Fr. Peter is a truly dedicated priest and an absolutely terrific man. We of the alumni association of his last assignment, St. Angela Merici Church and School, considered ourselves fortunate to have worked closely with him for 10 yrs. Our loss at St. Angela’s is certainly St. Cecilia’s gain. Best of luck, Fr. Peter – We will miss you. Maria Bertini-Guerin’63 President St. Angela Merici Alumni Association 15 July 2010 - Bronx, NY

And of course in making it possible to visit inside my beloved SCS school and church. 18 April 2010 - Cranbury, New Jersey USA

Eleana Conde | Eleana_Conde@colpal.com

I hope to make the reunion this coming weekend. I attended both Commander Shea & St. Cecilias, then went on to Catholic High School - Our Lady of Perpetual Help. I am forever grateful to my parents for putting me through catholic schools. Great teachers back then / I miss the way the school system now operates, especially public schools. I now live in Westchester in a wonderful school system but don't like the fact that students get away with lots of things, especially homework - there's no consequence in the public school system. I wouldn't be who I am today if it weren't for my parents and the disciplined teachers in the catholic schools! Started Comm. Shea in the 2nd grade / then went to St. C in the 6th (that's when the two schools shifted in grades). Best years of schooling! 16 April 2010 - Live in Westchester County / Work in NYC

What a wonderful site!!! I have such fond memories of my years at St. Cecilia's - 1962 -65 - I taught fifth grade and was upstairs with Sr. M. Frederick and Sr. M. Veronica. There are lots of stories you all need to know. No one will ever know what Sr. Veronica quietly did for people. I am happy that some of you are still in touch with Sr. Christine and Sr. Kathleen Ballantine. I also had the Glee Club and that group was made up of boys and girls - we sang at the World's Fair, if anyone remembers. Shirley is also posting a note I sent her. It is wonderful hearing all the positive comments so many have written. You need to know how much we love you all and had such hopes for you when we taught at St. Cecilia's and CS. 28 February 2010 - Plattsburgh, NY

Hello to everyone.I attended St.Cecilia's in the years 1975 through 1983. I am trying to locate Mr. Anthony Aratari's burial site. I need closure with my teacher. He was one of the best teachers. I was in all his plays. Mr. Aratari wrote and dedicated a childrens book to me called"Jingle Pennies" I am now a teacher and I always remember him and talk to my students about this wonderful person who has impacted my life and the lives of so many others. Please contact me with any information of his burial whereabouts. I truly admired and never can forget him. I really implore anyone out there who can help me with this matter. God Bless Everyone.
