The FIIFA Corporation wishes to introduce its unique International Good Will Service to the
Rich and Famous. The reason being that because of FIIFA's existence and the "Clout" that certain generous wealthy people posses, more funds could be generated and donated to their favorite Foundations, Charitable Organizations, Churches, etc.
without the necessity of spending more money of their own! (This is over and above any moneys they normally donate!) This unusual and positive Concept is clearly seen at:

Miami-Dade County Mayor's Office & Commission Declares April 12, 2001 "Gideon Day"
Artist Gideon Accepting the Proclamation
Thursday, April 12th marked a great day in the art world; Miami-Dade, one of the largest and most powerful counties in the United States proclaimed this date “Gideon Day.” The Commission recognized Artist Gideon for his lifetime achievements in the arts and his great importance to the history of South Florida.
“I’m honored to receive this award. I’ve been here since I returned home from the war in 1946… that’s a long time for anybody!” Gideon said in a small speech after receiving the award from Commissioner Javier Souto.
This Proclamation signals the beginning to a series of events to hit the South Florida art scene. Efforts are underway to rename one of Miami’s largest roadways “Gideon Blvd” where Gideon has held his private Gallery and Studios for more than 50 years.
Miami-Dade County Office of the
Mayor And Board of Commissioners
Whereas: Miami-Dade County
takes great pride in recognizing individuals whose contributions
serve to elevate the standard of life in our community; and,
Whereas: Gideon, a renowned artist, has lived and worked in
South Florida since his return from WW11 in 1946, he has devoted
his life to the arts and has been an icon in this community for
several years; and,
Whereas: Gideon's studios have become a landmark to local
citizens and to hundreds of visitors from all over the world,
children have grown up in the Miami-Dade area knowing and being
influenced by Gideon and his art; and,
Whereas: He has lectured at schools, universities,
art-decorator-photography groups, served as a celebrity judge in
art shows, has guest starred on several local TV and radio
stations, and has been the recipient of myriad awards and honors
among them as the featured artist in "The Holocaust
Chronicle", a book documenting this historic event during the
years of WW11: and,
Whereas: Gideon's work has been displayed in numerous
Museums and Synagogues, such as Beth David Congregation, Beck
Museum of Judaica, Boca Raton Museum of Art, and Temple Sinai,
just to name a few;
Now Therefore: Be it resolved that I, Alex Penelas, Mayor
of Miami-Dade County Florida, on behalf of the Board of
Commissioners and this Community, do hereby proclaim Thursday,
April 12, 2001, as GIDEON DAY.
In Observance Thereof: I call upon the good people of
Miami-Dade County to join me in recognizing this extraordinary
artist and citizen for all his contributions to this community, as
well as the culture of South Florida.
Signed:
Javier Souto, Commissioner, District 10
Alex Penelas, Mayor

HAPPY EASTER MR DALLI,
BRODY AND ME MADE THIS PICTURE FOR YOU. I HOPE YOU LIKE IT. BRODY
PUT THE DOTS ON THE EGGS. WE HOPE THE EASTER BUNNY BROUGHT YOU
SOMETHING.
HE CAME TO OUR PLACE LAST NIGHT AND LEFT US SOME EGGS AND
CHOCOLATE RABBITS.
LOVE JESSICA AND BRODY
The above was sent by two
loving good hearted children
situated in New Zealand. What makes this gesture extra
special
is the fact that it was sent to a man (a senior) that they never
met!
Would it not be wonderful if all of the Children on earth were
taught
by their Parents (Like Jessica & Brody) that Love is
much stronger
than hatred?
Would this not be a much better World if all children were given
Paint brushes to express themselves instead of guns?
For obvious reasons, I honor Jessica and Brody's parents.
My sincere thanks.
A. Dalli
