Trinity s Forget-Me-Not window was a special gift
By Tom Adamich
Recently, I wrote about the beautiful windows at Monroe’s Trinity Episcopal Church that serve as a chronicle of Monroe’s 19th Century and early 20th Century history. I focused on the Narthex, Memorial and most of the nave windows. However, one nave window was not included and deserves a separate article: The Forget-Me-Not window.

Manning, Edward Manning, Alice Manning, William Manning, Ella M. Wright, Henry Manning, Judge W.D. and Mary Ford, Gertrude DeLand and Charles W. Ford.
