Thanks everyone for the comments.

Some additional info.... Wolf was cremated when he passed. He had sold his property and the house he and Suzi had built into the side of the hill overlooking the meadow and creek. The new owners who I believe were friends with Wolf, graciously allowed the going away party and the scattering of his ashes in the creek.

The framed portrait you see in several of the pictures was being presented to his wife Suzi. One of the people who attended the Beano Festival was a very talented artist and had painted it from a photo. They made 100 numbered copies with #1 going to Suzi. The rest were sold as a fundraiser for Suzi to help with the cost of everything that was going on with doctors, treatment, and final expenses.

At the very last Beano Festival, they had door prizes and I was fortunate to have my ticket called on one of the drawings. The prize was one of those numbered paintings. It hangs in my studio front and center about the monitor.

Beanos up! All throughout the entire weekend of the festival, folks could be heard occasionally yelling "Beanos Up!". Whatever you were drinking, you were challenged to take a drink together.
