Some Gus

Photographer Gus Chan of the Cleveland Plain Dealer has two slide shows of fotos, and one video tape of fotos that he has taken of the Catholic Church in Cleveland over the last four years.

I spoke (some time ago) to Gus Chan, he believes this continuing story is important to the entire Greater Cleveland community. He saw the closings diminishing the cultural life of the area, and sad moments for people. He would often be one of the very first people to show up to an event. He recorded history.  Some of the photographs made the daily paper, some only on-line. Many, many fotos have still not been seen at all.
