Lit by the warm colors of sunshine spilling through a stained glass window, Jill Leash, pictured, and her husband Doug Leash spent time during visiting hours at Saint Peters Landmark Thursday afternoon cleaning up in preparation for a wedding this weekend.

After helping save St. Peter’s Landmark, Doug Leash has worked to protect the historic church for 40 years St. Peter’s Landmark is a defining characteristic of The Dalles’ silhouette, but in 1971 it almost disappeared from the landscape altogether.
