I love the National Portrait Gallery and am excited that you have been chosen. I love the painting, but especially love the fact that your volunteers and staff are with you as it is always a team effort. Thank you for everything you do.

When I recently saw the painting at the gallery, I noticed the artist gave him a halo, somewhat subtle that I believe speaks to your humbleness. You are so deserving!!!💕
