At our Annual Council in February, we recognized Gordon Tayloe for his
many years of service as Diocesan Chancellor and, as a token of our
appreciation, presented him with an iPad. In a note of thanks to Bishop
Hollerith and our Diocese, Gordon said, "I was very much humbled
by the reception of the Council and presentation of my iPad at the 121st
Annual Council by you and on behalf of the Diocese. I had expected to
be recognized, but I had no expectation of the warmth and extended
ovation that was accorded me. Then topping it all off, the gifting to me
of the iPad was overwhelming."
Gordon is continuing to
serve as one of our Vice Chancellors and his new iPad is helping make
that possible. After a few lessons with Communications Officer Ann
Turner, Gordon is using the iPad to draft and edit legal documents and
manage email correspondence, among other things.
"I thank you and the
many wonderful brothers and sisters in Christ with which I have had the
opportunity to be associated and to have served the last ten years.
Despite some "maturity" issues, I very much look forward to continuing
to serve in the future. Thank you again my Bishop and friend, the clergy
and congregations of our Diocese for so graciously honoring me."
