Random Christmas memory #1
My Godfather was Polish (I'm not sure if he was actually born there or not, but I know his parents had been, and he used to visit Warsaw as often as possible.) He and his family were very involved in the local PNA (Polish National Alliance) chapter in our area.
Every Christmas they had Mass and a Christmas party for all the families. The Mass was in Polish (I knew 2 words... "Hallelujah" and "Amen") Then we'd have a great meal and sit on Santa's lap and get a gift.
Haven't been to one of those Christmas parties in... well... a very long time. But I miss them. And I miss Uncle Frank.
