Bells on a road trip: The bells from the former St Josephâ€s Catholic Church of Bayonne are shown on a truck that left the city recently to go to Cincinnati, Ohio.  Thatâ€s where the bells will be polished and prepared for their new home in the soon-to-be- constructed bell tower in Fitzpatrick Park.  That park is located on Avenue C between 26^th and 27^th Streets, across the street from City Hall.  The park is named after former Mayor Francis G. Fitzpatrick. Mayor Jimmy Davisâ€s Administration saved the bells, so that they would be preserved for future generations in their new home.  St. Josephâ€s Church served Bayonneâ€s Slovak Catholic community.
