In 1991, Bp. Constantine moved to the Christ of the Hills Monastery in Blanco, Texas, a place that proved a better climate for his health. Bp. Constantine reposed on [[May 31]], 1996 after a brief struggle with pneumonia and was buried at Christ of the Hills Monastery.
Given the dissolution of Christ of the Hills Monastery, efforts were made to recover after 18 years, Bishop Constantine's remains. On were removed and re-interred at the Jordanville Monastery Cemetery, on [[December 1]], 2014, he is to be reburied by Metr [[Hilarion (Kapral) of New York|Hilarion]].During this process, Bp. Constantine's relics were found to be in-corrupt. Glory to God for His saints!
