Michele,

I have not learned quite as much as you have about my contact, Raffaella. I have begun the portrait, and she and I have talked about 4 times. But now that the anniversary of the 9/11 incident is here, I have backed off a little to give the family time. I too hope to go to New York to deliver the portrait within a month or so, but actually Rae (as she asked me to please call her) spoke as if she would consider coming here, too; I offered her a mini-time away for awhile, if she wishes, as I have pleny of room here in the 10 rooms with 4 extra beds.

We have talked so easily and I too feel a friendship developing. She was married to Lt. John, a 26 yr. member and founder of the Haz-Mat Co. and they have 3 teen boys. Actually, she just sent her eldest off to college (19yrs. old) and was considerably sad about that. Understandably so !

I am looking forward to talking to her soon. I have a problem with the arm patch and the insignia on his lapel, as she had only a black and white. I am checking now how to find out about those in order to render them correctly.

May I ask if your contact talked to you about your background, or did you present that to her? I will more than likely do my background plain, as being an officer, I feel the mood is one that is quite formal. Wouldn't you agree?
