Full Circle Series
This piece is not all that recent but I post it because of the passing of my uncle, Jack Holm, who recently sent me a very kind email telling me how much he liked my work and how proud he was of me. It meant more to me than I can put into words. My sympathy goes out to his wife (my aunt) Ronnie and to his children, Greg, Steve and Lisa whom I haven't seen in far too long. This is also for his surviving sisters, Agnes and Ann, and his nieces and nephews (there are 22 of us). Some of you may remember this cookie jar.
I will always remember my Uncle Jack as having a smile that could light up a room, and for reminding me that the bonds of family diminish little with time.
Hi, Ski - my condolences to you and your family. Your uncle sounds like a wonderful man.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great painting.
Thank you, Liz. Most of my memories of my uncle are from many years ago, but they are all good ones.
