Each completed window is comprised of of 20 panels and measures overall approximately 10 feet in diameter.  Two of these windows were restored and reinstalled.  The glass came from a closed church in Kansas City, Kansas.  The glass panels were removed from the KCK church by Steve and Gary.  Excessive quantities of broken glass and badly deteriorated lead came necessitated a complete tear down and rebuild to ready the glass for its new home.  The panels were taken to Steve's studio where he performed the entire restoration process. Steve is pictured below getting ready take one of the completed panels up for installation into the new frame at the new location. This picture also shows, in the background, one of the two openings prior to installation of the new stained glass framework. Picture on the right shows the new framework installed along with the first small "kite" panel at the very bottom.
