Our dear friend, Andy Peryam has passed away over the weekend. He and his wife, Susan have done so much for the museum over many years. Not only that, he was such a great friend and meant so much to me. Here are several photos of the Tramway Diorama that Andy planned and built, as well as a photo of Andy and Susan on the day of the dedication of the diorama at the museum.
