Follow the link to read an article about my journey into art. The article was written by Wendy L Pitton R and I’ll say this, I was very honored to be the subject of the article, and Wendy is one hell of a writer. She was able to find out and share things about me I rarely talk about. She is very easy to trust with even the most intimate of subjects, and she does not betray that trust. Thank you Wendy for helping me share my story.

Love your art work, btw my dad Walter Schulz (Ney, Ohio) was in the army with your dad, Donald D Banister in the 1950’s.
Dad always talks fondly of Don.
Dad would love to connect with your dad and reminisce.
Would you be able to provide an address or phone number?
Dad turned 90 this past December.

April 14, 2020 at 7:35 pmHi Linda, I remember Dad speaking of your father many times. I may be wrong, but I believe your father visited us here in Colorado when I was really young. My dad took your dad for a ride in the mountains, up Mt Evans. Highest paved road in the world at one time.
I regret that my dad passed away in 2011. When my daughter was deployed to Afghanistan in 2010, he promised her he would hang on until she returned. He kept that promise. He died of asbestos poisoning, at the age of 82. He had a full life, 3 children, 7 grandchildren, and 11 great grandchildren. He worked as an Ironworker, and did the high steel. You can not go anywhere in Denver and not see something he worked on. My mom followed him on Father’s Day, 4 years later. She just kept saying she wanted to be with dad.
I’d be happy to answer any questions Walt might have. My email is cuttinletters@msn.com. Thank you for reaching out. And plese stay safe in these uncertain times.
Kyle
