Description
These three standing figures wearing white scientific lab coats are meant to be Mother Mary, God and Jesus Christ. As models the artist used three well-known television personalities who all represent traditional values. Jan Clayton (as Mother Mary) played the mother on the original Lassie. Clayton Moore (God) was The Lone Ranger. Billy Gray (Jesus Christ) played Bud, the son, on Father Knows Best. Twitchell did this mural for his master's thesis at Otis.
