This weekend, 44 years ago on May 30, 1973, Jim and Sue Cusack packed up their cars and began the trip up Palisades Parkway to begin the Villa! They headed to St. Josephs, NY (near Monticello, NY) full of dreams, to claim the building and freezer full of food given by the Dominican Sisters to begin.
Here is a picture of the Villa, then and now:
Finally, we would like to express our gratitude and appreciation for those whom have made the ultimate sacrifice in serving our country, and their families.
Happy Memorial Day from our family to yours!
Love,
Sue and the Villa family
