Members of Fort Lee's Saint Rocco's Society are carrying on a tradition that dates back almost nine decades. Nearly two-dozen members will carry a statue of their patron saint down Main Street on Sunday in Fort Lee's Italian Festival.
"It demonstrates our devotion and thanks to our Patron Saint Rocco for all he did to those that where in need of healing, prayer and uplifting of their spiritual beliefs," society Vice President Rocco Palaia said .
