She was a superb teacher through and through. When we had our Churchill painting exhibition on the 50th anniversary of his passing, she and the governor laid at wreath at our rostrum as had been done 5 hours earlier at Westminster Abby. The London event had three Churchill great grandchildren place the wreath. Churchill family member Duncan Sandys, married to a Macon girl was a big part of our exhibition and he was there for the wreath laying with his young son Julian. The sirens of the governors motorcade were loud but Duncan was detained in the museum by Senator Max Cleland, an unexpected visitor at that moment. Upon arrival, I explained all this to Sandra and Governor Deal that Max was there and that I had asked the child to fill in for his otherwise detained father, Max needing additional help. I showed them the powerful images of his little cousins laying the wreath at the abby, and that this American born Churchill must uphold his family tradition and duty on behalf of the United States of America!

In memory of Georgia First Lady Sandra Deal
