Albany: Episcopal bishop to be installed
Saturday, February 3, 2007

The Right Reverend William Howard Love will be installed as the ninth bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Albany during a ceremony at 4 p.m. Sunday in the Cathedral of All Saints. An organ recital will precede the ceremony at 3:30 p.m.

Elected by a majority of both lay and clerical deputies to the diocesan special convention last March, Love's election received the consent of the 75th General Convention of the Episcopal Church. He was consecrated bishop coadjutor for the diocese in September and automatically succeeded Bishop Daniel Herzog upon his retirement last month.

A native of Texas, Love previously served 14 years as rector of St. Mary's Church of Lake Luzerne. He is married to Col. Karen Love, New York Air National Guard, and they have two teenage children, Chris and Catie. the rest
