Ol' Joe

San Jose, Calif

My good friend has passed away. Joe was a wonderful friend who was filled with stories from his past.
He was always ready to help a friend, even if that meant sitting in a studio holding a pose for a portrait.
My husband and I relied on him for his help when we moved into our "new" house 16 years ago.
He was a man of many talents, and a good person. We will miss him. Goodbye, old friend.

As long as a soul is remembered in but one heart, they will never be lost.
A fitting tribute, a stunning image. (Voted)

Of course the technical aspect is perfect, yet too you have captured the very essence of
this man, his spirit. Excellent shot.
