A kind man

[Saint Monica]

My dad had purchased a painting from this guy:  www.facebook.com/josedtrujillo

I had cx'ed his order explaining his unexpected passing.

Jose sent the picture anyway, dedicated it to my dad and wrote my mother a beautiful condolence letter.

We got the picture this past weekend.  I wanted to post a picture of it (here and to keep a copy on my work computer) b/c it is truly beautiful but every time I saw it I started to cry and I could not get my camera to be steady.

That is so kind and thoughtful of him. I hope in time you will look at it fondly and not feel so much sadness.

That is so caring of him. And now I'm browsing his site for stuff for our new house. I'd love to support someone with that much heart.

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. What a wonderful piece to have to memorialize your father. Someday you'll look at the picture and think of your dad without tears. And now I want to go look at his stuff and buy something. He has a good heart (and some good paintings. Your father chose well.)

I love it that this artist wanted your dad's family to get what your dad had ordered. Obviously it meant something to the artist to have your dad select a piece from him, and then for the artist to be such a cool human being to give the painting to your family. Such a great story.

I'm sorry you have lost your dad, Saint Monica. (((((SM))))))
