Mary could hardly see the figures of the boys and had to get help from volunteers who would model for her. She wouldn't have used this photo except for the story she saw in it.

Friends will stand by us in good and bad times. They encourage us in our dreams and help us stand strong for the values and truths we believe in. Today people seem too busy to take the time that's needed to make close friends and to be a friend to others to put others before our own desires. That is partly why Mary was drawn to do this painting of three boys together in a time when television didn't exist and The brand names on clothes weren't important. A man who has friends must himself be friendly, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.
