I attend the Pulaski Parade virtually every year with mixed emotions…this year was no different. Why the mixed emotions? One part of me enjoys the celebration of my Polish heritage, but another part of me is sad because I remember when it was on Broadway in the not too distant past…attending also brings back memories of participating in the parade as a child and a teen.
The sad side of my emotional scale really peaked when the Saint Adalbert’s group and float started to roll on by during the parade. It hit me again like a ton of roofing material falling off of Transfiguration Church that barring some sort of miracle St. Adalbert’s will probably be gone by this time next year.
It is sad…another piece of Buffalo’s historic Polonia will fade into the past.
With that said, there is an effort by current parishioners to save the church. A lot of it is covered in the most current edition of the Am-Pol Eagle…I am zipping an email to the publisher to get an okay to reprint the articles here.
