Parkchester, the Bronx, NY 1965

From my dad's old 8mm films. a few seconds of Halloween at our apartment and some shots of St Raymond's Church for my brother's confirmation. Quick shots of Sister Helen Mary, Father Flynn, Father McGuire and others..sorry about the blurriness, film wasn't in great shape..
