Monica Warhol, cousin to Andy (once removed), who was ten when Warhol died in 1987: “My grandfather and Andy’s father were brothers. My Aunt Betty took me to the cemetery every week, where we’d pray over Andy’s grave, because my aunt said he was pretty flaky and was probably in purgatory.”

She’s a painter too. And Warhol fan Kanye West has commissioned her to paint Kim Kardashian … Whatever. But the quote is amazing.
