Chuck Baird, Noted Artist and RIT/NTID Alumnus, Dies

Wow, I just learned about Chuck Baird tonight from his friend, my ASL 5 teacher. What a terrible loss. His paintings are beautiful and so fraught with meaning. You simply must view them to appreciate fully. Nat tells us he was also an actor with National Theatre for the Deaf and was accomplished in many areas. Here are some links to his death notice, his biography, and to view his beautiful artwork.
My condolences to the family and friends and the Deaf community.
