Dear Editor: I grew up in this church and with these sisters (“Holy Union Sisters Leave Astoria After 71 Years,” April, 2017). I have many good memories of what the Church was. Sister Jeanne and Sister Bridget have brought my nephews and nieces up. These sisters were here for my mom.

It is a sad day when the sisters of the Immaculate have to relocate and leave the parish, their home for many years. Times are a-changing… and not necessarily for the better. Miss the whole scene… Love to Sister Bridget and Sister Jeanne.
