In Memory of DeanCarl - "Dean Shaffer"

If you are a Bryce artist, you most likely know of DeanCarl [Dean Shaffer]. For the past five years, Dean has been a vital part of the Renderosity family, and especially of the Bryce community. His gallery images reflected his love of art and nature.
Days End � DeanCarl [Dean Shaffer].
We are saddened to report, that yet another amazing artist has lost his valiant battle with cancer. In Dean�s case it was lung cancer. We shall greatly miss this remarkable man, not only for his artwork, but more importantly, we shall miss the man himself: his sharp wit, wonderful sense of humor, and willingness to help and give to others, even in his days of darkness � he believed in his art, his friends among the art community, and the hope of living each day to its fullest! A direct quote from Dean: "I decided on no chemo or heavy radiation. I'm going to live life while there's life to be lived, one glorious day at a time!" For a glimpse into Dean�s final months, we invite you to read his journal postings on the Lung Cancer Support Community. Our prayers and thoughts go out to his lovely wife Gay. Please join with us in sending Dean's family and friends our condolences. We also invite you to take a few moments to view Dean's Renderosity Gallery Dean shall be missed greatly! The Renderosity Staff and Community!
