It is with sadness and joy that I have learned of the passing of the Reverend Doctor Peter Toon on the Feast of St. Mark last.I am sad in the fact that Orthodox Anglicanism has lost one of it's greatest defenders and thinkers; and joyed that he shall serve the Lord in a new and greater capacity in the company of Heaven.
Dr. Toon had been a champion of the 1928 Book of Common Prayer for it's structure and conformity to the classical Anglican formulas and was able to deftly critique the shortcomings of the 1979 book. I encourage you to visit the Prayer Book Society website and download Dr. Toon's writings and learn more.
One can admire Dr. Toon for his steadfastness in defending the Faith from within the Communion and yet he was comfortable in talking and working with those from the Continuum, he will be missed by many.
