Lindsey Stauffer is Dick's brother Jim's 21-year-old daughter. She is becoming quite an accomplished water color artist. Today she emailed me a picture of Destiny she had painted. She said she just sold the picture to a man who has two adopted daughters from Bolivia. He said the picture of Destiny reminds him of his daughters. Check out her work at lindseystauffer.artspan.com. Our favorite is the one she painted of Dick's dad playing the harmonica. All her pictures are so realistic it's really hard to imagine that they are not photographs.
Dick's mother was an artist. Her favorite medium was oil paint. None of her five sons took much interest in drawing or painting, but most of her grandchildren are very artistic, each in their own way. It's very interesting to see this strong trait develop. Even though she died in 1981, she lives on!
