Honoring a WWII vet’s legacy

There are a LOT of stories out there, but this one is going to stay with me. I can already feel that in my bones.

The news is often full of politics and death, but finding the beautiful tales of hope and love are the best part of my job.

Though I never knew Edwin L. Echelmeyer while he was alive, I am so glad that I could write about how he took up painting after his wife’s death, at the age of 85, and created over a thousand beautiful works. What a wonderful tribute.

I only hope my little write up did him justice:
