Dear Tenants, April 8, 2020
With the holidays looming upon us, and the start of Passover being sundown today, I understand that the effects of this isolation can become even more cumbersome. I would like to thank those of you who are embracing this societal change with fortitude and helping our community to get through these tough times.
Being that churches have been closed during this epidemic, one of our tenants, Flo, was kind enough to do some research and find that Channel #39 (Global Catholic Network) will have a Holy Thursday Service at 12:00 pm, Good Friday Service at 2:00 pm, and an Easter Sunday Service at 12:00 pm. I have yet to find a non-denominational service but hope this helps those who would like to watch.
The bad news we heard today is that over 700 New Yorkers per day are dying from the COVID-19 virus. This goes to show how serious this situation is and why we are taking extreme precautions.
I am sorry that you will not be able to have your loved ones visit for Easter & Passover - I truly am. However, your actions will go into the history books to state that we had to sacrifice certain luxuries in order to accomplish our public health strategy.
Chag Pesach Sameach (Happy Passover),
Dominick M. Manfredo
