"Once you choose hope, anything is possible."
Christopher Reeve
Tranquil, beautiful, Flower City Park in Palmyra, MO is the future home of The Angel of Hope. The angel's face is that of a child, it's arms raised as a child waiting to be lifted. The word "Hope" is inscribed on her wing.
The Angel of Hope is an exact replica of The Christmas Box Angel statue, located in Salt Lake City, Utah. It stands as a symbol of hope for all families that have experienced the death of a child. The Angel of Hope is based on an angel statue in Richard Paul Evans' best selling novel, "The Christmas Box."
To honor our children, memorial bricks will be placed around the base of the statue with separate walkways extending in different directions. The statue and surrounding area is intended to be a place of peace and healing for bereaved parents, family members, and friends.
