I carved this token of appreciation for a church in Louisiana whose members prayed for me and helped me out during a recent cancer surgery.
I don't even know anyone from Louisiana. They were doing this for a complete stranger.
The wood is 400+ years old - having been harvested by my son, my brothers and I from a Maine barn built in 1802, and much of it's timber having been re-purposed from an earlier structure.

A hand carved gift of quality is the best way to say thanks.
