Dear Anonymous,
He is not one to want to be in a photograph. But this morning he gives permission. His quiet and stately voice gracious for a cup of hot coffee. Some socks. And two beautiful handmade fleece hats for his grandchildren...made by two Portland High School Students for those experiencing homelessness with a grant from Painting For A Purpose.
He has something beautiful and useful to offer his grandkids.
THAT is something. Something real.
Great outcome. Thank you dear Anonymous , Painting For A Purpose, Portland High School students and faculty. - with Tina Clark Edwards
