For perhaps a year my partner and I were honored to have
Greg McCray in our home. One day I asked him to draw a piglet
between 2 pieces of bread. He drew it in perhaps 3 minutes. It is
the piglet image in the left top on my webpage. I was
amazed and commented on his speed and talent. Then he said that in his most recent previous
life he had been a Jewish artist in Vienna. A number of Jews were
rounded up by the Nazis. There were several rows of men waiting
to be machinegunned to death. He said he kept trying to get into
the back row hoping for a miracle of escape. When he saw his death
was inevitable he moved up to the front row.
