The Steve Malick Memorial Golf Tournament

Steve Malick is a man that i have known my whole life. He worked with my dad for LCSA for more than 20 years. Steve Malick was a good and funny man that lead a interseting life. Last year he passed away. This year my dad, some people from his work , and Steve's family started a memorial golf tournament in his name. The money form the entrys to the tournament will go to a scolarship in Steve's name to help a student go to college. As a contribution to this wonderful cause i drew a golf picture of a man on a course at sunset. Its a beautiful picture. The picture will be presented to Steve's sister at the lunch after the tournament. Which i am attending.

I know this sounds depressing. But really its not. He was a good man and would love the fact that he gets to be a reason for all his work friends to take off work to golf. I love that i was able to do a beautiful piece of art in his memory.

Its not bad to remember. Its good to remember those we care for. But to do it in a way that honors their memory. So today think of some one you have lost and honor them. Remeber them and celebrate them.

Have a good day and know that God does love you and watches out for you.
