Joanne Slama, my wife, asked Naida to paint ‘Man’s Three Best Friends’ for me, Leonard Slama for our 23rd Anniversary in 1977. This picture has my wife-Joanne, my horse-Bally, and my dog-Pal in this beautiful painting.
Joanne passed away October 1, 2021 and today is Joanne’s birthday, October 13, 2021 and I’m grateful for Naida’s talent. I have this picture on the wall, to look at, every day ‘til the day I’m gone to be with her. I want to share this note with her family.
