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.

My mother was asked by Howard Shay the other day if she would be willing to assume the role of Warden of Trinity Church in Canaseraga, the post left vacant by my father’s passing. She said she would think about it for a while, and yesterday morning she gave Howard the answer “Yes” that he was hoping for. My mother will make a fine (and I might add, exceptionally well organized) Warden. My father would certainly approve.

Congratulations to Carol Topping on her new role! I know she will make a huge difference.

Congratulations to Trinity Church on your new Warden! You have snagged a great lady and she will serve you well.
