Children's Memorial Park


The loss of a child is traumatizing for a parent...no matter what age the child was...no matter how they died.  In fact, "traumatizing" is not near a strong enough word to describe the pain and suffering left behind.  The death of a child doesn't just affect the parents.  Siblings, school friends and other family members and friends are all left feeling a horrible sense of loss.

In times of healing, parents often need a quiet place of solace to nurture their sense of loss and to remember the life of their child.  Perhaps even to honor their memory.  
          "If every tear we shed for you became a star above:
           You'd stroll in angel's garden lit by everlasting love"

Angel of Hope

The Angel of Hope gives parents, families and friends a place to:

  • remember, honor and share their child who was taken too soon.
  • open their hearts to all treasured memories that are so important to everyone.
  • know their child will never be forgotten, always loved and remembered in a place where this common bond connects us regardless of age, race, nationality, religion, social and economic status, and
  • see their name and share them with all those who seek the angel out - A Place of HOPE.
 ANGEL OF HOPE
With the face of a child with arms raised up as a child waiting to be lifted,  the Christmas Box Angel provides a place for grieving families to visit.
In it’s wings are HOPE…
