aplumma Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Thank you Joanna and Paul for spearheading the effort I knew it was a good idea from the start. Pam as always your talent is great and the uses you put it to are a tribute to your soul. Lew I know what a powerful force 2 brothers can generate between each other to have a picture that shows that is a rare and precious thing. I am sure that a place of honor will be found and the memories will last for many years to come. Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 A great tribute for a most deserving man....... We all have or will experience life at it's very best and it's most challenging times. The support that we receive from OFC's, some whom we know well and others who we have never met, is truly overwhelming. The fact that we share some of the best and worst times of our lives with one another attests to what we actually have here. Each time you look into the painting Lew, you will discover new intimate details that bring back fond memories. Something that only an artists rendering can provide. Be well Lew, Diane and Sheri...... John.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacklebuster Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 We see it time and time again, these acts of kindness and generosity, that truly separate OFC and its members from the rest.
