A Great Spirit... (by Doug Phillips)

I met V'Ann mostly through volunteering for exhibition tear-down at the OUSA conventions in NY.

I was impressed by her grace under pressure and her very clever but often simple models for constructing display spaces (walls and shelves and stands). Her models were on display everywhere, in the background, letting others shine.

Conventions are a hectic time and I did not get to know V'Ann very well. I count myself lucky to have known her the little I did, and will miss her grace and presence.

Condolences to her family and friends...
