Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	This is so cool. My friend who had a son killed in Iraq also had a local artist approach her about painting her son's portrait. Apparently he did a super job and it was a huge protrait. It now hangs at the high school he attended. There are so many good souls in this world. I love being reminded of them.

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Chatty, Dotsie, and Mountain... What a wonderful gift. Families have portraits of fallen soldiers to display in-house and in hearts, forever. Right! There are a lot of fabulous, kind, talented folks in this world. And it's comforting to be reminded of that fact. Ciao for now, bonnierose _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf
