The crowd who gathered for the memorial service for the Rt. Rev. Edward L. Salmon, Jr. , 13th Bishop of South Carolina, held at the Cathedral of St. Luke and St. Paul, Charleston, July 6, 2016, heard about \u201cThe faith of Christ that formed him, the man of Christ he became and the challenge of Christ Ed Salmon would offer.\u201d\u009d<\/p>\n
The Rev. Canon Dr. Kendall S. Harmon, the Diocese\u2019s Canon Theologian who served under Bishop Salmon, gave the sermon. The two were friends and co-workers for more than 25 years in various settings.<\/p>\n
The Rt. Rev. Mark J. Lawrence, 14th Bishop of South Carolina, served as the celebrant at the service.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe was a shepherd,\u201d\u009d said Harmon. \u201cHe saw the church as precious and served the church out of love, devotion, respect and admiration, doing it for the one who brought the church into being in the first place.\u201d\u009d<\/p>\n
