WYSK: CELEBRATING MY 75 YEARS OF AGE

by Councilman Rev. Rubén Díaz

You should know that this Saturday April 21, beginning at 7:00 p.m., in the Christian Community Neighborhood Church located at 1437 Longfellow Avenue in the Bronx, I will be celebrating my 75th birthday.

Reaching 75 years of age and feeling in the state of health that I am and having enough energy to continue my struggles on behalf of our community and our people, I have and I must be grateful to our God for all those blessings.

There are many community programs, jobs, housing, and leaders that I have been able to develop, educate and raise here in Bronx County.

I thank, my wife Leslie, my church and its officers, friends, and community leaders who will come together this Saturday with the purpose of making me feel happy, loved and not too old. Hahaha!

I am Councilman Rev. Rubén Díaz and this is what you should know.
