Baseball Kid


We went to a memorial service today at a funeral home for a friend of someone that Kathy knows.  When we arrived at the funeral home there was a large pergola over the entrance.  Underneath the outer edge of it was this small statue of a boy with a baseball hat and bat.  It is the cutest statue ever!  I took note of it and when the service was over I came back out and did a number of photos of the statue with my cellphone.  I just love this silhouette version.  I never bothered to ask when we were inside, why this statue was there.  But seeing it made me feel good. So I guess that's why the funeral home put it there.

My condolences to Kathy in the loss of her friend.

This statute is adorable, but I find it so unusual to be outside of the funeral home. It makes me think that it might be the child of the owners or something. I can't believe you did not inquire about it.

The young baseball player statute is adorable. I’m sure there is a story behind it being at the funeral home…Betsey

Possibly a young Boy who is
forever remembered …after his funeral. So sad but certainly leaves ‘a smile on’ your heart
