Applause to Mr. Lamphere and his yet another accomplishment

Just returned from the unveiling of Dale Lamphere's Community Tapestry Project at the Monument. A hospital staff said Dale's proposal for the wall piece stood out because it was community oriented. Knowing his expertise and fame, he could have easily created a monumental sculpture, which he had done so many so well for years. However, he wanted to honor us, local artists, through this project. The idea was his wife's. During his speech, Dale did not forget to honor his righthand worker, without his assist he could not have accomplished the project. My admiration for this SD Artist Laureate soared even more in this rare opportunity to work for him.
