The rain didn’t stop the joyful celebration of Italian-American heritage at the Columbus Day Parade in New York on October 9, 2017. After celebrating a special Mass at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral, Cardinal Dolan spent much of his time greeting the parade marchers with his trademark warmth and enthusiasm, which has become a tradition in New York City.
