Our beloved Jim Anderson passed away peacefully and suddenly on Sunday, May 19, 2019, with his beloved wife of 50 years, Geri, and dear friends at his side.
Left to cherish his memory are his wife, sons Robert and Turk, and sister, Marianne Wilkinson.
Jim grew up in Lawrence, Kansas where he received his bachelor and masters of arts degrees at the University of Kansas. He was also a Thomas Jefferson Scholar at the University of Virginia where he received his PhD. Jim spent 35 years as a history professor at the University of Georgia where he was voted by students as Outstanding Honors Professor multiple times.
He was also included in “Marquis Who’s Who in America,” served as president of the Gulf Coast Community College Foundation board and the Lions Club, and was a dedicated leader of the Outback Bible Study Group. He was an optimistic and humble gentleman who will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
The Celebration of Life service and reception will be held at Trinity Church in Apalachicola on Thursday, June 6 at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations can be made to Trinity Church charities or the Gulf Coast Community College Foundation.
If anyone would like to send a card to Geri, her current address is:
Geri Anderson, 2712 Indian Pass Road, Port St. Joe FL 32456.

Many Thanks to All Who Served
in the Call Process
|
|
As our Parish prepares for the arrival of our new Rector, Father Eric Zile, I would like to thank everyone that has been involved in the Call process and the transition from the Interim Priest to the Permanent Rector.
To the Search Committee, thank you for your dedication and the selfless number of hours that were spent gathering information necessary to complete our Parish Profile. You are to be commended for your diligence in recommending Father Zile to the 2019 Vestry.
To our 2019 Vestry members, thank you for your patience and thoughtfulness in voting to call Father Eric Zile.
I would also like to convey a special thank you to The Reverend Donna Gerold for her service to Trinity Church. Donna was called as our Interim Priest in Charge following the retirement of The Reverend Martha Harris. Donna was able to help guide our Parish through this period of transition between Martha’s retirement and the calling of Father Zile. On behalf of the 2019 Vestry, I wish Donna success in her next Call and continued blessings in her service to Christ and the Parish she serves.
I look forward to welcoming Father Zile and continuing our ministry at Trinity Episcopal Church.
-- Gary Ulrich, Senior Warden

Transition Timetable:
We look forward to a smooth transition over the next couple of months, as we prepare to welcome our new Priest.
Donna's contract as Priest In Charge has been extended through July 14, so worship services and other church operations will continue in full force.
A supply Priest will lead services on July 21 & 28.
Eric's first Sunday with us will be August 4.

How much fun can a Foyer Group have?
Looking at all those smiles, there was plenty of fun and fellowship at a recent Foyer Group dinner that also celebrated Gary Niblack's birthday. The dinner was delicious; the cake was phenomenal; and the sunset over the bay was beautiful. Celebrating with Gary
