63 Years Ago Today


63 years ago today, Robert J. Varettoni married Frances, my mom. Above is a scene from the reception at Clifton Casino in New Jersey.

That place, near the intersection of Broad and Grove streets...


...no longer exists.

But the venue for the wedding -- Sacred Heart Cathedral in Newark -- certainly does. It has aged well, to say the least, and is more magnificent than ever. Here's what I wrote about a visit there earlier this year, including more photos.

Happy anniversary, Mom. I miss you, Dad.
