Century-old French clock restored at Warren-McElwain chapel
Randy Watson, pastor of Eudora Church of Christ, and his father Avis Watson repaired a centuries-old French clock hanging in the Warren McElwain Mortuary chapel. The clock had stopped for six years after a cross country move from California. Built before the American Revolution, it now keeps time again after Watson’s repair effort aided by his clock shop experience in Raytown Missouri.
