New Book Mentioning St. Stephen's
Bill McCaffrey has written a book 'It's a Long Lane That Has No Turning', that prominently features St. Stephen's, Broad and Allegheny, Nicetown, Hunting Park, Srs. Helen, Rose, and many others. It should be available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble in about 10 days, but you can buy it now from Lulu.com now. Click <here> to go to the order page. If any alumni wants an autographed copy, they can e-mail Bill at mccaffrey6@verizon.net and he will purchase one or more for you and send them via Fed-X or UPS.
Read and share your memories about the school ,the nuns and the priests or about the fun you had at St. Stephen's in the guest book. Posts not related to the parish, such as advertizing, politics, or major league sports teams will be deleted. Also, the IP address of the computer that you use to post is recorded and any inappropiate messages will be reported to the proper authorities. I wish that I didn't have to say this, but there's always someone out to spoil a good thing. Also, please enter your email address so we can contact you about reunions and other events.
History of Saint Stephen's Parish (Edited from the St. Stephen 100th Aniversary Book of 1943 and updated by Richard Lienast and robert A. Butler).
Pictures:
The photo albums have been completely redone. All captions that I had before are back. You can now enter comments for each picture. Please enter your name when you comment. Any picture without a caption has been given a number. Email me with the album name and the picture number if you know the caption for that picture. Also alert me to any inappropriate picture comments so I can remove them
There seems to be a problem viewing the picture albums using Google Chrome. I will look into it. Meanwhile, I have tested Explorer, Safari, Opera, and Firefox and they all seem to be OK.
Enjoy. - Michael. info@saintstephensalumni.com
