My sincere condolences to the Belk Family. Ike was the single most admired art patron in my long career as a professional artist. I first, met Ike and Carol at the campus of Appalachian State Univ. and from that day forward he was the most sincere, generous and supportive patron I have ever known. He was enthusiastic, encouraging, supportive and I will never forget his broad and renowned legacy in this state and beyond. I will miss him deeply.
