Cleveland.com has an obituary/memorial article for a local glass artisan, James Whitney. Whitney, who died of kidney cancer, completed hundreds of projects ranging from a Catholic church on Kelleys Island to Baptist churches on Cleveland's East Side and buildings in other states. The article also includes:

The Old Stone Presbyterian church on Public Square, Trinity Episcopal Cathedral at East 22nd Street, First United Methodist at East 30th Street, Euclid Avenue Congregational at East 96th Street and Church of the Covenant Presbyterian in University Circle were among the churches to tap his talent.

Whitney worked in restoration, but also in new designs. He will be missed in the communities who were touched by his work.
