| Notes |
He never married. His passion was painting & enjoying people; he visited our house often when we were growing up & always made us laugh; I was given two of his paintings which I display proudly in my home; the Board of Education in Bristol was given one of his paintings by him when he retired from the school system in the 1990's; they have it hanging in the Board of Ed. office in Bristol, CT.

 | Painting 'Country Road' by Rocky Lozier
After visiting Woodland, ME & being told by the town hall that my great-uncles, William & Arthur McGough, lived up a country road now called 'Gough Rd' just next to the town hall but there was nothing left up there but footings for where the house was, I believed that this painting was done by my Uncle Rocky when he was up there visiting on his many trips to ME. |
