Killingsworth was the pastor, whose daughter, Pat was a classmate of mine at Parker School. Urban renewal relocated them to a church on East St. in Wilbur, just before Logan Ave.<br />Most of the parishioners were friends and neighbors of mine.<br />Proud to see where there ended after such humble begginnings.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Mike KuzmaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-82094183336037588612013-12-01T11:00:46.460-05:002013-12-01T11:00:46.460-05:00As teenagers, we walked past this church almost ea...As teenagers, we walked past this church almost each Saturday to the Greenwood Theater.<br /><br />We would also go on long walks from Waverly Place along Greenwood Ave. all of the way to the train station and back. It was always a wonderful walk on warm evenings passing this beautiful church and the lovely old homes on Greenwood Avenue.<br /><br />They are the evenings I have missed the most after I moved to the country....even after 58 years of being away.<br /><br />Thank you so much for these old memories that come to mind when we<br />look at these great photos. These memories are precious.<br /><br />Alice<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
