Description
Every paint stroke is a celebrating tribute of love to honor the man everyone called Hickie, my Grandpa as I called him. His full name was Jesse Edward Hicks and I'm proudly named after. I only wish every grandchild could experience the complete love and wisdom that was bestowed upon me by this Grandfather. Hickie's character touched many lives for the better! He was also a recipient of the prestigious Carnegie Metal for Bravery . I was fortunate to have a photograph capturing one of his numerous outdoorsman loves in life, fishing. For you Grandpa!!!!!

This is a wonderful tribute to our grandpa, Ed! I imagine the creek in the background as being the one that runs through Creitz Park in Cambridge City. To all of us grandkids, Hickie was a teacher, an encourager, a coach, an advocate, a supporter, a foundation, and a father. We were so fortunate that he took us under his wing and sheltered us from some very real storms we were experiencing as young people. He was a gift that we enjoyed for about 30 years of our lives. Oh how I miss him sometimes. I can hear him loudly clearing his throat in that old blue Nova, then cussin' to no one in particular ... "Damn phlegm!" Then spit out the window!
