Parson C. M. Brandon. 5 1/2" x 3 1/2" black and white photograph; Parson C. M. Brandon, "a former automobile salesman, he took up the ministry and was the Episcopal Rector at Waseca for many years. That is when I met him and a dear friend he turned out to be. I will never forget 1925 when I was ill, he visited me every day (but two when he was out of town) for seven weeks. He was an ardent worker with the Boy Scouts. It was during his pastorate in Waseca that the beautiful Episcopal Church was built. It is now the Grace Lutheran Church. After leaving Waseca he served as Rector at Brainerd, Minn., then moved to Omaha, NE where he was chaplain in a CCC Camp. He is now Senior Chaplain at Recruit Reception Center, Fort Custer, Battle Creek, Michigan. He is an honorary member of the Waseca Aquilla Club."
