Carolyn “Bertrand” Hodges, a cherished artist, passed away on Saturday, April 26, 2025, at 98. This photo captures a joyful moment celebrating her 95th birthday with dear friend David Behrman and me. I wrote a heartfelt tribute to Miss Carolyn in my Art Valet column for The Leader. Links below.

Carolyn "Bertrand" Hodges, David Behrman, and Mitch Cohen stand together outdoors, smiling warmly after celebrating Carolyn’s 95th birthday. On the left, Carolyn, an elderly woman with white hair and glasses, wears a purple cardigan and white top, holding a walker. In the center, David, with short gray hair and a patterned shirt, holds a tray of baked goods, his face mask below his chin. On the right, Mitch, with gray hair and sunglasses, wears a plaid shirt, standing near an open car door. The background features a brick building, a multi-story structure, and greenery under a clear sky.
Carolyn, David, Mitch
