Toll the Bell

It was not long ago that humans marked the loss of another by tolling the church bell. The tolling of the bell was a call to the congregation to come together and grieve a loss and celebrate a life. Neighbors: this is your place to ring the bell and grieve your loss and celebrate life. As always tread with respect.
