Most Important Piece of Art
Elizabeth’s grandfather wrote a poem during WW2, while he was overseas for her grandmother. When he returned home, he designed a piece for her grandmother incorporating it, and it hung over their dining room for her entire childhood and adulthood. She cherished it so much that the poem was in her wedding and the piece now hangs in her house.
