Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - Inclement weather
was deterrence to the attendance of the 46th Annual Easter
Communion Breakfast of the West End Pulaski Society Lodge 1052

After Mass, the members and guests proceeded
to the Lodge Building and enjoyed a delicious breakfast that was
catered by Rockefeller's Catering and the sweet breads that were
baked by member John Schubert. In conclusion of the breakfast,
brief comments were made by Lodge President Val Pawlos, who
spoke of the importance of supporting the youth in the endeavors
to both the Lodge and to the community. PNA President Frank
Spula spoke of the many benefits offered to all members of the
PNA. After the comments by President Spula, Mr. Pawlos presented
him a $1,000.00 check payable to the Polish American Congress
Charitable Fund benefiting the orphans in Poland.
