My dad just passed away on December 20th. Alzheimer’s grabbed him and finally took him away. I just received a box with some of his things. The little Bible is dated 1886, and has several of his ancestor signatures inside, faded, like this photo. Faded doesn’t make a memory any less real… I wish I could read the entire signature on the baseball. Here’s to not forgetting.

Kim, my sympathies to you. A father’s place in a girl’s life is special, irreplaceable…
Your photo is spectacular and deserves printing & framing so it will be somewhere you can see it often.

So sorry for you loss. Alzheimers is a horrible disease for everyone who loves the person attacked by it. Your photo is beautiful and inspiring. Nice to meet you and good luck in Beyond Layers. Angie:)

Grandpa Norm would love this picture. I agree with one of the comments left that you need to frame it and hang it somewhere. It’s cool too because to some people baseball is a religion. I love what the photo says.
Notre Dame Fan says
Wow Kim, beautiful work. Our dad would love the baseball and the bible. His religion were the cubbies. I would love to have a copy of the limited prints of that picture. Well actually all of them.
Actress, craft queen, and artist what next?
Love,
