Seeks paintings
Dear Editor,
I live in Seattle, Wash. My father was born in McCook in 1920. His parents were W. W. and Charlotte Lewis. I never met my grandparents.
My dad's name was Marion "Zipper" Lewis, he passed away in 2000.
My dad took off when he was 18 and never had contact with his parents again. I finally talked him into contacting his sister, Madge Whiteman in 1988 and they were reunited after not having seen each other in fifty years.
The story was actually covered by your paper when we went back to visit.
Anyway, I have come across an old scrapbook that belonged to my grandmother and there are newspaper clippings that mention blue ribbons she won for her paintings, I think they were oils.
What I was hoping is that perhaps some of those paintings might still exist and that I might be able to obtain one.
Thanks for any help you can give me.
