Giving Thanks during a year of tragedy

The year of the World Trade Center devastation

We have special reason to give thanks. Our prayers were with the fallen and their families. Our thanks was for America and what we have survived.  The date of the holiday reminds us too of another tragedy, the assassination of president John F Kennedy

Helton and Dennis were the Thanksgiving dinner hosts.  Our guests include Olga, Helenice, Heloisa, Ricardo, and Raphael

Helton, Helenice, Heloisa and Silesia would go out into Jackson Heights on the following day.  It was Helenice's first visit to New York and the family wanted to show her around the neighborhood
