When looking through my parents photos, I quickly recognized the location of this 1977 baptism as the basement of Saint Rose Church in Girard, Ohio. Saint Rose was where I went to elementary school; the stained glass windows in the basement stick out.
My older cousin Jake Sofranko is being held by his mom Julie, with dad Bill in the gray suit. My mom is the godmother in the blue dress.
I had almost (mercifully) forgotten what a liturgical desert that decade was. Good heavens, what is that priest wearing?

I'm going to send this photo to Jake. Pretty cool!
