Franklyn V.E. Seales: Life of an Artist

About this ebook
"He was present from the beginning of my life to the end of his. His expression of love came in many forms - calls, letters, gifts, visits.

He wanted to make sure that I was happy, smiling and laughing which he always made sure you did with him. I have now surpassed his age at death and know that his lessons are with me. He left the example that there are no limits in life, only the ones you self impose. And most importantly, he left me with the ability to know that I should "live the life I love and love the life I live!" His ashes were taken to St. Vincent in late May 1990. My trip to St. Vincent for ten days was previously planned and was also purposeful in introducing my cousin Monique to the island.

It was nice for the family members that were there to be together during that time."

Such was a man named Franklyn Vincent Ellison Seales...
