John Papson is a 1966 graduate of <strong>Hellenic</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> and a 1969 graduate of Holy Cross.<br />
He has been involved in the restoration of the<br />
Chapel while working at the School in a variety<br />
of capacities. He assisted with the installation<br />
of new iconography and the restoration of the<br />
iconostasis. A self-taught woodworker, he has<br />
made a relic chest, a podium, a table for the altar<br />
area, a cross for above the Royal Doors and a<br />
frame for an icon of St. Nicholas.<br />
“This work has been particularly gratifying for me<br />
because the Chapel was built and decorated while<br />
I was a student at the school and I spent many<br />
afternoons in the Chapel watching Demetrios<br />
Dukas installing the icononstasis and mosaics.<br />
And the icon of St. Nicholas was done by him.<br />
I look forward to when we will be able to add more iconography in the Chapel.”<br />
