Sandy Hook Memorial


Not long ago I mentioned the Sandy Hook Memorial our Friends of the Decatur Public Library were purchasing for the library.  I'd like to share these pictures of that memorial.  What a wonderful and kind gesture this is by our Friends.  I'd especially like to thank Beck McDowell for the idea and for creating such a thoughtful list of books to memorialize each person.  Ms. McDowell spoke so eloquently to us of  her reasons behind creating this memorial for her library in Huntsville.  Long before the Sandy Hook event, she wrote a book about someone in a similar situation.  The similarities moved her and led to this beautiful list of books to commemorate each person.
