To Mr. Lankes'
family, I WISH TO EXPRESS MY DEEPEST CONDOLENCES. I WISH I
COULD HAVE MET this great man BEFORE I DID. I hope you all
are at peace knowing that your dad is truly where he wanted
to be. I enjoyed his stories, and listening to whatever he
wanted to talk about. I will miss him. He was very happy
with all his family. I hope these words will comfort you
through these tough times ahead. Jean, Betty, John and
Robert, he truly loved you all. Thank you for letting me in,
even for a brief time, to know him and enjoy his company,
Thank You, Kellie.

Carol,
In your note about the passing of
John
M. 'Bud' Lankes, it mentioned that his father was Julius
J. Lankes. I assume that he is the same as the Virginia artist,
J. J. Lankes. |

My parents framed a set
of his woodcuts, and had them displayed on our living room wall.
I have a number of them. I scanned "Swinging", which
is from "Virginia Woodcuts", Copyright by J. J. Lankes, 1930. Published
by The Virginia Press, Inc., Newport News, Va. Oh, my! See how linked and intertwined we all are!
Thanks so much for sharing this
with us, Cousin Henry!
