LEEDS, Utah — While workers put the finishing touches on St. George’s new City Hall, one of its focal points hasn’t been installed yet. It’s a sculpture.
But it isn't just a sculpture; it's a love story.
"Without her, I wouldn't do and be what I do," Jerry Anderson, the 90-year-old artist behind the piece, said of his wife. "Because she's promoted myself and she's done all the work while I'm out there playing in clay like a little boy."
Jerry has been married to his wife Fawn for 71 years. He met her when he was 17 and she was a cheerleader. She's cheered him on since in his artistic career, where he became known for his historical and Western-themed sculptures that have become known in southern Utah and worldwide. Even with a stroke a few months ago, she still handles his paperwork.
