As I reviewed your website, I noticed that Graham Hardy was your minister for a number of years. I knew Graham and Mrs. Hardy very well. They served with distinction here in Charleston WV, he as Interim at the historic Kanawha Presbyterian Church, and she as a soprano soloist, whom I accompanied once or twice. In the biography of Dr. Barclay, the writer noted that he was scheduled to preach for Dr. Hardy on the weekend the Barclay’s daughter died in a boating accident.
I noted that the Scottish Episcopal Church’s convention would be held at PPC. A wonderful and harmonious thing. My wife and I, though we are not Episcopalians (I am a retired minister of the Presbyterian Church USA) attend an Episcopal church locally.
