Dear Editor: As a former Queens resident, I was blessed to see this relic presented at my new parish in South San Francisco. It was a deeply moving experience (“The Heart of St. John Vianney Visits Brooklyn and Queens,” April 13). I became enamored of this saint after reading NY’s Father George Rutler’s classic book, “The Curé D’Ars Today: St. John Vianney.” I wrote an article about it a few years back, “St. John Vianney, Patron Saint of Bad Memories?”: https://www.catholicstand.com/addicts-reflections-st-john-vianney-patron-saint-bad-memories/
