Parishioners Pat and Barb Clark visit Esopus.

Pat & Barb Clark went on a road trip this summer to Esopus to visit and  see Father Browne’s grave stone. They wanted to  share the following photos with all of us!! Below are pictures taken of Father Browne’s grave stone. The property is now owned by a Bruderhoff group, a religious organization. They welcomed Pat & Barb with open arms and wanted to know more about Father Browne. Truly a wonderful visit for all!!!
