Gold Star Mother
Uploaded: November 11, 2013
This Statue Sits On The Waters Edge In Hampton N.H.
It Was Dedicated Back In 1957 In Memory of New Hampshire's Heroic War Dead Lost At Sea In Defense Of Our Country.
These Words Were Expressed at The Dedication.
"Reverently She Lays A Wreath Upon The Soft Waters Which Embrace Them.
As She Looks Across The Waters, She Asks That The Winds And Waves be Gentle, As A Mother Who Covers Her Sleeping Child At Night"
Thank You To ALL Our Veterans
