Default Odd Dogwood Problem

I recently purchased a new home that is surrounded by dogwoods -
some of the trees look great, but the rest have light green leaves
with dark-ish spots on them (which from what I've seen online could
be a fungal issue?)...but the odd thing is that the trees with this
problem don't have any foliage from the middle of the tree to the
top - just completely bare branches. I'm seeing plenty of
information about the spotting on the leaves, but are these bare
branches caused by the same types of fungal problems? Any advice
on where to look for a solution as it seems this is a serious
problem? (one of the dogwoods died before I bought the house)
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide.

There is no solution for Anthracnose.



Amazing, isn't it? This is what makes gardening interesting. A creature that
requires a microscope to identify can mess with us and our pet plants any
time it wants, and there's not a damned thing we can do about it. We should
be impressed and humbled.
