In Memoriam: Bobby Hannah February 28, 1943 - May 7, 2008
Bobby Hannah loved to paint. When she was inspired, she would go to her house on the mountain, and before you know it, she would have something beautiful on canvas. You can tell by the vibrant colors she chose for the cover of Oscar and the Rainbow that Bobby Hannah was a colorful and not a timid person! Bobby leaves behind a legacy of beautiful paintings, many of them are paintings of Christ. "Let your light so shine..." and she did.
