September 5, 2020

From Bev:

“Covid 19 seemed to consume every news report during 2020. This block is my version of a newspaper that reports not only the Covid numbers, but also some other things that happened on September 5th.

While I know only one person who actually has had the virus [as of Feb, 2021], the lock down and the social isolation of the pandemic prevented me from saying goodbye in person to my mother before her passing, and it adversely affected my husband's dementia and contributed to his passing.

Creating this piece of art is in memory of them even though they didn't die of Covid, and for all those who died of the virus.”
