But who else will sorely miss it? I'm glad you have a profound sense of tradition w/ respect to this chapel. I can surely empathize the loss.

It is "just a building" and thank God no one was hurt. But it was an important and God-filled building in the lives of soo many for soo long.

My daughter Lindsey is crushed by the thought that the beautiful old Steinway piano that she loved so much is surely ruined. It meant so much to her to be able to go in occasionally and have the sheer joy of playing that piano. She really loved the way it looked and the feel of the keys.<br />As for the chapel, I felted blessed to see the outer brick shell still standing. The chapel as we know it is no longer the same but it will be transformed and its history will continue.Susie C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06853679183207675944noreply@blogger.com
