Thelma was my customer for over 10 years. I worked at Framers Workroom 2103 walnut st. She was always so happy always smiling, always wearing those striped blue overalls. I remember being so impressed with her love and dedication to her art , to her craft. She was one of my all time favorite person to work with.
Katherine Weisman
Several years ago, I saw Thelma Grobes' work on the Artists' House Gallery website and was fortunate to collect 4 of her etchings. Today, I was thinking of her and thought I'd search online to see where she might be showing her work (hoping to someday be able to collect more of her etchings). I was saddened to see the news of her passing. I would like to send my condolences to her loved ones. Seeing her creations in my home on a daily basis is one of my pleasures in life and I hope in some way that puts smiles on your faces.
I'm very sorry for your loss. Kindest regards, Katherine Weisman

My grandmother read to me from an illustrated Bible. The story was about an angel but, at only 4 years old, I didn't know what one looked like. So I asked my mother, who then drew the most cherubic rendition an inquisitive child could imagine. She shares company with that angel now...
