But also...

In 2002, he partnered with The Salvation Army to create two charity prints, The Season of Giving and The Light of Freedom. Proceeds from the sale of the prints were donated to The Salvation Army for their relief efforts at Ground Zero and to aid the victims of the September 11 attacks and their families in New York, Pennsylvania, and Washington D.C. More than $2 million was donated as a result of this affiliation. In 2003, Kinkade was chosen as a National Spokesman for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and during the 20 Years of Light Tour in 2004, he raised over $750,000 and granted 12 wishes for children with life-threatening medical conditions.

In 2005, the Points of Light Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to engaging more people more effectively in volunteer service to help solve serious social problems, named Kinkade as Ambassador of Light. He was the second person in the Foundation’s 15-year history to be chosen as Ambassador, the first being the organization’s founder, former U.S. President George H. W. Bush.[26] During his Ambassador of Light Tour, Kinkade visited cities nationwide to raise awareness and money for the Points of Light Foundation and the Volunteer Center National Network, which serves more than 360 Points of Light member Volunteer Centers in communities across the country.

I hope that when I go, I am not judged solely on my demons but also my good works as well.

Good attitude...The decussion at the time was why he died so young. Possibilities mentioned after looking at WIKI were cancer, heart attack and liver failure. Some of the most religious people I know fight the demons of life here on earth. Because of their faith they are assured of a victory in passing. NOT because of our good works but because of the GRACE of Jesus Christ our Lord.

We ALL know of the wonderful creative contributions he gave to the world. BUT works don’t get us to heaven. Grace does.

Are you Mormon? They believe in works. Christians believe in Grace. Major difference between the two.
