December 2001
NEWS LETTER

 

    Another year has come to a close....and what a year it's been !  It is the sincere wish of all of us at Alexis Arts, that your year has been filled with as much joy and laughter as you could handle.
    We had a year of magnificent art produced by the greats of our time.  We have had tragedy .  We have had our eye's opened.  We have seen technology move forward in areas we can hardly fathom.  We have endured, learned, and look forward with the hope of a better tomorrow. 
    I have been blessed with a  "grand daughter" born on my birthday. Such a miraculous gift I could never imagine. Right in the middle of the September Tragedy, amidst all the dust and rubble in our lives, God shined his light on me through a grand daughter ,and her name is Rachel.
