He was one of the bishops who remained with the [[ROCOR]] during the [[schism]] with the [[OCA|Russian-American Metropolia]] in 1946.  The American bishops voted four out of nine to leave the ROCOR at the [[All-American Sobor#Seventh All-American Sobor|Cleveland Sobor]].  Five remained with the Church Abroad, four left to head the independent Metropolia.
 
 
 
Tikhon was succeeded in the see of San Francisco by St. [[John Maximovitch]] in 1962.  He is buried at [[Holy Trinity Monastery (Jordanville, New York)]].
