When Jeff Grier began sketching a tribute to American heroes after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, he never imagined how far-reaching his drawing would one day become. Nearly two years later, his piece has been seen by millions of people worldwide as the image continues to circulate via e-mail and the Internet. It has been worn by thousands of people on T-shirts and hangs in countless military offices and fire stations across the country. However, the biggest tribute to Grier's work, "I'll Take It From Here," will be on June 13. That's when the Madison High School art teacher will present his oil painting to the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., where it will be displayed indefinitely. See entire story in the Ohio News Herald...
