"Remember...."

"Remember...."

This picture is dedicated to the memory and courage of my very dear friend Tami Lee and all those who also lost her battle with Breast Cancer.
On Aug 16,2006 I was awakened at 2am by this image. The urge to put this on paper was virtually uncontrollable. Every time I shut my eyes to try and get back to sleep, this image would appear. I tried several times but to no avail. At 6am I started to sketch out my vision. By noon that day it was complete. This picture would not have been created if it weren’t for the strong will of Tami, my dear sweet angel.
Thank you for your support , strength, and your courage as we battled cancer together.

    my aunt died after a long and tedious battle with Breast Cancer. I don’t say she “Lost” because she’s in a winner in heaven. The cancer brought her to Christ. This is a lovely picture though.

  • Sandy Sparks replied

    I didn’t think of it that way. You are do right.
    Thank you and keep her in your thoughts, dreams and prayers.
