This is a remembrance from our Boston Byzantine Choir Director, Charlie Marge about a dear friend and priest recently reposed.

It is with great sadness, but with the hope of the resurrection, that we inform you of the passing of Fr. Isaac Crow, pastor of Sts. Peter & Paul in Potomac, MD and father of our BBC alum and composer, Basil Crow.  From our early days, Fr. Isaac was a strong supporter of the Boston Byzantine Choir and offered our ministry much encouragement over the years.  He was a kind and gentle man, full of faith and wisdom.  He battled cancer on and off over the past few years, which had just returned three weeks ago.  In the words of his Khouriyee, “He died a true Christian.  With every pain and tribulation he would say ‘Thank God.’”  We will miss him dearly.
