I’ve been there, very nice place. Isn’t Cardinal Dougherty up in East Oak Lane or near there?

I grew up in East Oak Lane and went to Holy Angels and Cardinal Dougherty. It was a great neighborhood in the 70′s and it’s good to hear it’s doing well in 2010!

Myself and my 7 brothers and sisters grew up in East Oak Lane and went to Saint Helen’s grade school and Cardinal Doughterty High School. I only hope that the new generation of EOL kids have as great a childhood there as I did.
