I found this gentleman in a drawer today. There is no identification on the back of the photograph and I can’t read the characters on the right. I’d guess it was taken in China (there is a dragon embroidered into the subject’s garment). Help!
Gary Morris was my teacher back in the 1980’s. I was his helper. My job was to anticipate what he’d require next to get the job done. Gary’s work was careful, strong and excellent.
Line lived on Rosni Farm, she lived near McCoy, she lived in Wake Forest, she lived in the Glendale neighborhood of Jacksonville, she lived in downtown Quincy Florida, she lived in Albemarle County. She swam in the James, the Rapidan, the St. Johns, the New and the Apalachicola rivers. She went to ground in Charlottesville, beneath a Japanese maple from my natal home.
Yesterday Matilda and I visited Line’s Charlottesville veterinarian. The DVM is retiring at month’s end following near 50 years healing animals. A good life and a great gift to this community.
