"Special guest, Mary Ann Thompson-Frenk, is an artist whose most acclaimed piece, 'Buckminster's Galetea', is a work of exquisite patience and detail. The artist inverted Buckminster Fuller's geodesic dome formula at different angles in order to create the 7ft female figure!"

"...I made this promise to my father, and now I will make it to you...
I promise to carry on the spirit of your generosity...
I promise to remember that we are on this plane of existence to contribute to its growth,
I will honor what you have taught me by reaching out to others in the way that you reached out and guided me...
And I promise that because I hold your flame in my heart,
A portion of what you are, and what you have lived for, will live on in me."

Dear Mary Ann,
You are a very special person, and I thank you for your beautiful words. Best wishes to you and your art career and your community service. I know you will do great things."
