Wow.  That's a sad story!  This is a nice shot and the detail and color are outstanding.

Thanks.  Sadly the church was sold a couple of years ago due to lack of priests and membership.  The bell tower was also rotting and was removed, but saved, and now stands in front of our local elementary school as kind of a gazebo.  The bell was taken to a nearby perish where it joined another bell from another local church that was sold.  The stained glass windows from this church were originally donated from members of the church in the early 1900's and was given back to descendants of the family that still atteneded the church.  I'm so happy that I got this picture . . . I appreciate it all the more now.
