But the greatest thing they remember was the visit of Grey Wolf -- the resident Game Warden. He'd be sitting at my kitchen table when I came in to fix dinner on a cold winter night.
Tall, slender, quiet like the woods he tended. A broad-brimmed hat with a pheasant feather proudly prancing from the snakeskin hat band. He was a remnant of the old Seneca Tribe of Iroquois Nation people. For a hot supper, and warmth from fire and friends, he'd pull my children to his lap and tell them Indian legends, laying their hands on the backs of his so they could see the difference in color tone.
My children grew up acknowledging that God made people of many colors because He likes colors. No matter what color our skin, we all bleed the same color, showing we are children of God. Grey Wolf spoke of our God as Creator to the Seneca People; told us of the visit of the great Peacemaker two thousand years ago. Great sadness filled his voice when he spoke of those times. His people were Monotheistic in their belief. Their Three Sisters -- corn, squash and beans - were the staples of their life.
Since those days I have made a personal study of the Iroquois Nation and found it as Grey Wolf said. I, too speak with sadness of the end of their Nation at the hands of the white men.

Today I got my christmas pressie early...
..... but 1st a short story...
Twas the summer of 1997, Mother was an author of short story's & poems. One of Mother's great friends Anne, was a painter, during a visit from Anne, Anne glanced at Mother whilst she was finishing a paragraph of a story on the computer. Anne commented that the pose she saw at that point in time would make a great picture, making comment of Mother has "fingers of a writer".
So the sitting began for the portait....
In early 1998 Anne surprised Mother with a special request..... Anne requested Mother's permission to enter the portrait in The Archibald Prize of that year.
Mother's Portait titled "Tell Me A Story" made it to the 2nd final round of judging.... Top 21-50 Portaits of 1998.
Today I got my christmas pressie...... Mother's Portait is now in family hands.
May I present the late Elisabeth Ann Fuller-Mobbs inspecting "Tell Me A Story"........
Rest In Peace Mother
