Irenic Thoughts

Irenic. The word means peaceful. This web log (or blog) exists to create an ongoing, and hopefully peaceful, series of comments on the life of King of Peace Episcopal Church. This is not a closed community. You are highly encouraged to comment on any post or to send your own posts.

Memorial Garden


These pictures show the Memorial Garden wall as it looks now, finished with tabby but with no one yet interred and so no bronze plaques over the inset holes showing where the 22 niches are located.

This project is indebted to Al Virgin who designed the wall and all but singled handedly saw it through to completion. The garden will be an important source of comfort for generations to come for those whose loved ones are buried in this beautiful setting on church grounds. We are now ready to offer all three options intended inthe garden design, interrment of cremains in the ground around the gazebo, interrment of cremains in the wall, and memorial bricks remembering loved ones no matter where they are buried.

We remain grateful as well to the family and friends of our own Marcus Dickman. Memorial gifts in his honor are what led to the creation of this memorial garden.
