ANCESTOR'S DAY AT ST. BONIFACE ~ June 2, 2012



Ancestor’s Day 
On Saturday, June 2, 2012, 10:30 a.m., the Fosters Meadow Heritage Center
 will be organizing another event at St. Boniface RC Cemetery, Elmont, NY.  
Many of us have grandparents, great grandparents and even great-great 
grandparents who were buried here well over 150 years ago.
Our heritage started back in Fosters Meadow back in the 1850s.
Let us take this day to clean and tidy up some of our forefather’s graves.
It is a good opportunity to share awareness of our heritage to children and 
grandchildren. We ask you to bring your shovels, watering cans and 
and a flower to plant. Experience has shown us, that  the best flower that
will last the entire summer is the vinca, it is very draught  resistent.
However the choice is yours.
Last year, about 30 people attended and hopefully this year even more.
 If you think you will be able to attend you can just send us an email,
 an unable to attend requires no response.
