We lived right aside to the east of this church. My dad donated the land for the new cemetery. I served Mass and rang the bells here for the Angeles every day while attending school here. Then the bishop of Toledo tore it down. He was offered $300,000 for it but refused and spent $250,000 to remove it. When God said brains he was out to lunch!
