DescriptionA reception honoring retiring St. Augustine's Episcopal Church Rector William A. Pottenger brought a bishop to town Sunday. Diocese of Phoenix Bishop Joseph Harte (center) came to dedicate a newly-redecorated office room at the church to be known as the William A. Pottenger room and to add his good wishes to those of the congregation for "Father Bill" and Mrs. Pottenger (2nd and 3rd from the left). Wishing the retiring Episcopal minister well here too are Michael Goodwin (left), St. Augustine's senior warden; (from right) John Chubbuck, junior warden; and longtime St. Augustine's member George Morrell. See the caption in the April 22, 1977 Tempe Daily News and 2001.19.753.
