Mr. Martino ci ha scritto questa breve email:
I am the artist and crafstman who produced the Stained Glass windows in the church. Today, my daughter pointed out this blog and I wanted to tell you about the day we dedicated the stained glass windows in the church of Camporella. It was a day that we still talk about with friends. Don Luca, the pastor of the church, is a kindly priest, who we have come to admire. After the Mass in which the new windows were dedicated he invited us and the village to lunch. The meal must have begun about 12:30 that afternoon and we have a photo of us all still at the tables laughing and enjoying each other’s stories. In the background is a clock showing 6:15 in the evening. The tables were fill with empty wine bottles and our hearts were fill with joy. I will always be greatfull to the kind people of Camorella and hopefully I’ll be able to return.
Per tutti i miei cugini, un caro saluto e baci.
