Preserving The American Political Philosophy: Weston Neil Andersen 1922-2015


My beautiful Dad, Weston Neil Andersen, who established Andersen Design Ceramics in the 1950's died a few days ago. This is a post in remembrance of a remarkable human being and since it is on my blog about the Maine economic development statutes and what is hidden within those statutes and how it has affected the state in which my father established our own business, I am weaving the two threads into one. That is part of what I got from my father- everything is everything.
