From Connecticut-
When Barbara Burns plays the organ at St. Jude’s Church in Franklin,
she thinks about her mother singing with the church’s choir 60 years
ago.
“You can almost see your family up here, in the choir,
teaching Sunday school,” said Burns, 81, sitting near the pulpit on her
familiar cushioned seat at the organ during a recent Thursday service.
Burns,
who began going to St. Jude’s as a child, played the organ at the
Episcopal Church faithfully for 46 years before it closed in 2002. She
said her family shared a love for the old hymns that were played there.
