"About 5 years ago, as my husband and I were preparing for our wedding, and getting ready for our bachelor and bachelorette weekends, two weeks before our wedding, we got a phone call that his little sister had completely unexpectedly passed away. As expected, all of our worlds were rocked and we were devastated. She was to be a bridesmaid along with her sister as they had grown to be my “sisters” long before we had gotten even engaged. Fast forward to a few months ago I heard my mother-in-law say she was sad that she would never have a photo of all of her adult children together due to other circumstances as well. When I heard that and saw an ad for these paintings it was a no-brainer this is what I wanted to get her for her birthday in April. While the painting was technically for her it was really something I wanted to do for all of our family’s hearts as I obviously wanted a photo of how the family picture was supposed to look at our wedding. The painting could not have been more perfect and special for us for many years to come. "

"My mom lost her parents in 2000 and 2008. They were her hero’s. Amazing people who literally had given the shirts off their backs and opened their homes to the community on numerous occasions. They were both Christians who loved God, their Country, and their family. My mom has always wanted to have a picture with them. So, by taking 2 pictures and giving them to you, you were able to bring the peace that she has longed for. Thank you! "
