“Created by Greta Chaney. I am also a sculptor and do the same type of work as my mother, sculpted concrete over steel. Very few people do that type of sculpture. Maybe this has shed some light on one of your displays.” – Alana E. O’Kelly (Chaney)

“We just found an article about a display you have showing the remains of a statue of Chief Pontiac. He was made by my mother, Greta Chaney in 1951 and a second in 1961. I am sending two photos I have of the two statues she made for the same Restaurant. They are taken with my iPad so they are not great but they will give you a link to their beginning. If you are interested in more detailed photos, I can take them to be copied professionally. Please let me know if you are interested.” – Alana E. O’Kelly (Chaney)
