Default "Final Days for a Hall of Famer"

Bill Mooney won the Eclipse this year for his article on the final hours of Precisionist's life. If you follow this link, the page has a link to a PDF you can download of the article. Well worth reading. There's also another link to Michael Blowen's tribute to him on the Old Friends website.

Apologies if the article has been posted before. If it was, I missed it.

Very touching. The photo should hang on the walls of the hall of fame....
