R.C. Gorman has died of pneumonia. He was a painter of strong Navajo women. He lived in Taos, when I lived in Pilar. We ate at Lambert's every Sunday night. (in our sweats) Lamberts was the fanciest restaurant in Taos, yet it was the most fun-loving and friendly. It was such fun to sit in there and talk about art, people, cowboys, jewelry, food.....

Taos no longer has it's backbone. He was the glue that held the art community together. I'll miss him so much.
