Therese, remembering her son Michael

Therese: Artist Statement

This is the snapshot of Michael’s life and the things he loved to do: Michael loved his truck, smoking cigarettes, playing golf, going to the beach and finding heart rocks, fishing, kayaking, playing tennis, and skiing.  But more than anything, he loved his dogs.  Right after Michael died, we began finding dimes everywhere in the most unusual places and dragonflies would land on us when we went outdoors.  We knew these were signs from Michael that his spirit is here and helping us to get through the unbearable pain of losing him.
