A candle was lit, and he now rests.

There was a very nice turn out for the funeral, with many bishops, clergy and laity.

Bishop Basil was a priest for 64 years, 22 of which he was a bishop. He died at the age of 88.

(The first married man that he ordained to the priesthood was my brother, and that was about 12(?) years ago.)

Christ is Risen!

Fr. Bo
