Comments:

The pictures of the ordination of Phoebe Roaf are very well done. I attended that joyous event, and was very happy to re-live it in viewing the pictures. I had a similar experiece when attending the institution of Henry Hudson as Rector of Trinity Church and then viewing the pictures. Well done!
