  3. CandleImageMy friend the talented artist I still tell my grandkids about how you drew the toughy Eagle I had it in my room forever. Molly Hatchet was awesome picture of a viking. Rest in peace I will never forget you.

  4. CandleImageI was so sorry to learn of Karen’s passing. My mother had an incredible drawing of an eagle she did at the top of our stairs. I always admired it. My deep sympathies to Kelley and Chris.

  5. For Kelly…oh my gosh, Kelly, I’m so sorry to hear this news. I remember Karen, with her darling chubby cheeks. I’m also sorry to learn about Buzz. Love and hugs to you and Chris.

  6. Thank you for all the amazing art and music you introduced me to. You were a wonderful friend and had a huge impact on me growing up. I love you, Margot
