'You can't hold back the spring': The legacy of Rev. Robert Seymour


Sunday may be the pinnacle of the week for many pastors, but never for Rev. Robert Seymour. For him, the pinnacle came every day. Seymour, who died Oct. 11, spent the majority of his 95 years pastoring churches, founding organizations, serving on boards, penning editorial columns, and integrating Chapel Hill – always in his trademark suit and tie.
