Your tribute to Larry and Marsha Brady, our beloved SFC founders, is much appreciated by all of us. I was fortunate to take an Uncial Script class from Marsha in the 90's. Her hand-lettered alphabet sampler is a treasured possession. You wove their professional achievements, humanity and biographies into a delightful informative narrative. Bravo.
Randy, I just watched your beautiful video tribute to Marsha and Larry Brady. It was inspirational, and educational. I had several classes with each of them many years ago, and consider myself privileged to have experienced their teaching. Your video brought back wonderful memories. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing this well-researched tribute! I appreciate the work that you put into your presentations like this. Keep up the great work, Randy!
Marsha Brady was my first calligraphy teacher, Summer 1976, Long Beach City College. She taught us italic using Maury Nemoy's examples. I am still a calligrapher today thanks to her. I even saved a canceled check I wrote her in 1976 for supplies, $4, because she had endorsed it in calligraphy on the back.
Hi Amy, love that you saved that check haha. By the time I studied with her, she was using all her own exemplars, but it sure makes sense that she'd use Maury's samples in 1976. What fun!
A previous message from Pedro Paulo - Caligrafia em Ação (@caligrafiaemacao) What a beautiful homage. A truly prolific life and so many lives touched! I took screenshot of some pieces. The one with the Angel is one of the most creative and beautiful compositions I ever saw in Calligraphy. I'm going to reference it in my studies. I am too being impacted by Marsha and Larry. Thank you for that. Greetings from Brazil.
Randy, beautiful memories of Larry and Marsha. I, too, took classes from both of them at Cerritos College. They touched my life. Thank you, Judith Hicks
Hello Randy. What a great tribute to these wonderful and talented people. I did not know them, nor had I heard of them, but you brought them to life. Take care my friend.
Thank you, Randall, for your creating and sharing your video on TH-cam. I look forward to sharing your video honoring the Brady's legacy of lettering arts to my middle school and high school students.
A wonderful tribute to my brother and Marsha! Such talented calligraphers and deserving of all the awards and accolades they garnered. Thanks to Randy of Hasson Studio for creating the presentation. I was one of the 'bubbles' as he was my mentor all my life, and helped me on my path as a graphic designer.
I knew Marsha and her parents growing up in Salida. When I returned to Salida I had the pleasure of knowing the couplr. Kindess and joy they gave us all. Marsha and her beautiful voice she is now sharing with her choir of Angels. A great loss of two special people
Hi Randy, thanks for sharing the story of Marsha and Larry! It's such a sweet gesture to share life stories of teachers who have significant influences in calligraphy and lettering for the world. THANK YOU! (I love your great sense of humor too!!! How did you even find the photos of the spaghetti!!!)

Hi Marian, I can't tell you what that means to me that you liked it - thanks for letting me know!

Thanks so much Kalo for your kind words - and best to you as you continue to build your following.
Though I never met the Brady's and learned from them, their calligraphy influence in my work has come through you.
Thank you for sharing
