The artist LeRoy Neiman enjoyed a long and illustrious career before passing away on June 8 of this year at the age of 91. Though he did tackle other subjects he is largely known for his impressionistic paintings and screen prints of athletes and sporting events.
People like LeRoy Neiman exemplify what legacy planning is all about. His career as a visual artist inherently built a lasting legacy because his work can be viewed and enjoyed by art lovers for generations to come. And of course reproductions can actually be owned by unlimited numbers of individuals who enjoy his work.
