As a follow-on to the announcement of my mother assuming the role of warden at Trinity Church in Canaseraga
As a follow-on to the announcement of my mother assuming the role of Warden at Trinity Church in Canaseraga, here is a photo of Trinity taken by Peggy Ann Glaister on the morning of of Pop’s funeral. I had looked online for pictures to include with my earlier posts about Trinity, but could find none. Thank you Peggy for sharing them with us.
Trinity Episcopal Church was organized July 22, 1857. The corner-stone of the church building was placed Sept. 26, 1864, and the edifice, built at a cost of $8,000, was dedicated Dec. 14, 1865. A rectory was built later at a cost of $1,500.

Lance,
While I do not know you or your sister, I knew your mother and her parents in days long ago, at the old South Side Baptist Church, on the south side of Hornell. As I recall, your mom was a very good organist.
I am currently working for the NYSDOT (36 years and counting) and knew your dad from there. (He also was very active in our Credit Union, ever after he retired).
After your dad’s passing, I saw the “South Channel Website” mentioned in his obituary. I read with interest (and sadness) the blog you carried once Stan took ill.
My sincere condolences to your mom and all your family on your loss.
Dan Todd, Canisteo

Congratulations Trinity on getting such a wonderful person to take over for Stan. He would be very pleased. Congratulations Carol on taking over what must be a very difficult position for you at this time. Warden is a difficult position in the best of times, so mextra prayers will go with you as you make this difficult adjustment.
I still cannot thank Lance enough for keeping this site up and still keeping us all informed.
Prayers are with all of you
Sharon S
