Mr DeWitt,
Though we have never met I wanted to leave this message in your honor.
I have been connected to your lovely daughter for several years on social media, Lolly and I have also not met in person, but we have a connection that brightens my life on a daily basis.
She has posted your art work many times and I enjoy that she shares your amazing work for us to see.
I guess the apple did not fall far from the tree where Lolly is concerned so you can be assured that your love and memory will continue to shine bright into the future.
What a lucky man you were!
George Davis

I didn't know your father, a true artist; but I can make an educated guess your dad considered you, his daughter, the most valuable of all his creations. Honoring parents is the way we enshrine them to our hearts and memories.

He built for me a rabbit cage outside for my new rabbit I got when I was a kid in the 4H club. It was a beautiful cage.

Never knew the man but he raised one incredible daughter so he must have been a very extraordinary man.
