Career Celebration Montages
Phoenix Fire Fighter Pat Grimes received this original art montage as a surprise gift at his retirement party after 28 years with the department.
With the help of Pat's wife Sara, we were able to depict his life and family from his semi-pro football days to his current career with Grimes Trucking Company which he runs with his son-in-law Mike. We couldn't help jumping at the chance to include Pat sharing a quad ride with his favorite partner, granddaughter Lexi.
Especially meaningful was the way the artist incorporated Pat's prize '59 Corvette surrounded by his wife and two daughters, Brandi and Heidi. Pat has been blessed with a wonderful family and is proud of his service to the community as a Fire Fighter.
We are honored to have been chosen by his family to help capture over 30 years of memories in this special commemorative montage.
Dale Earnhardt is one to the best known drivers of all time and a fixture in the sport of NASCAR. PaintMyStory was commissioned to produce a montage on Dale's life. The proof you see here was signed by Dale giving us the go ahead to make several design changes and move on to the finished artwork.
While we'd sent the proof with instructions to "sign off" on the design which normally is done on a small sticker on the back, Ironically, Dale instead signed the front boldly with a sharpe, making it the souvenir that this piece would soon become.
On February 18, 2001 Dale lost his life in a final-lap accident at the Dayton 500. The montage was never completed, but we have this perpetual remembrance of his racing story and the honor we had in meeting the legend, learning about his family and getting to share in his success.
