Rev. Edward T. Clapp

To the Clapp Family: Your father
was a great friend to my late father, the Rev. William F. Taylor, who was the pastor of the only African-American Church in Portland--True Vine Church. In fact, my Dad's funeral was held at your Dad's
church in 1964. I recall him being
an awesome man of God, human being and a friend to the African-American community of both Portland and Middletown. I often thought about him and now I know that he is
receiving his rewards and resting...
