10/20/2019

2 Comments

 
John Furniss, also known as the Blind Woodsman, is a blind woodworker. His wife, Anni, is a painter. The two artists form a partnership that is the stuff movies are made of. John lost his sight when he was 16. After many struggles, he took on the challenge of living life as a blind man. He learned to work on pianos, learned to turn wood to create beautiful pieces of art, and he met the love of his life, Anni. This episode of A Leg Up On Life is the remarkable story of finding one's purpose after tragedy.

This is my lovely daughter Anni and my dashing son-in-law John. Thank you for sharing their story. Kids , especially, need to hear his story.
They are so amazing and I love their story. They are true soul mates. Their wedding was the most meaningful and the reception was the most fun.
Kind regards,
Colleen
