Photo Hunters - In Memory
Individually, each chair represents a person that was killed on that day.
The little chairs are for the babies that were in the day care center.

This is the arch you pass through at the entrance to the park.
The people that designed this did a wonderful job of incorporating the sorrow
and sadness but filling it with hope, as well.
I've stood and looked down over the U.S.S. Arizona, in Pearl Harbor, where you
can still see oil bubbling to the top of the water.
Collectively, people need a place to come, to reflect, and heal: A place
of memory, In Memory of all of those whose lives were lost.

It's sad to think that so many people died that day. May their memories live in the hearts of their loved ones.
I've never been, but the thought of tiny chairs for babies killed in the nursery brings a big lump in my throat. So sad...
My PH ~ In Memory of Kindergarten
I didn't know they built this memorial. They chairs brought a lump to my throat, too.
They are very difficult to see. All of us were in tears...
I also have a huge lump in my throat. How sad. What a waste all around.
I lived in OKC for seven years. We left in 1989 just before the bombing and I have never been back to see the memorial. It is lovely and sad and yet hopeful. Very nice shots.
Mine is up here.
What a sad day that was. A beautiful memorial to it though. Thanks for sharing it with us.
This post brought tears to my eyes. What an incredibly beautiful memorial park Oklahoma City has established, very poignant. Your depiction brings across the peace and thoughtfulness there. Thank you so much for your beautiful photography,.
