In Memory Of

This statue is in one of the parks in Saugatuck.

I love it.

I've probably posted pictures of it in the past.

If it wasn't that this park is across the street from the public restrooms, I would probably never know it was there.

The statue is compelling no matter the angle.

 Can you tell that the girl is holding a hand puppet?

I just LOVE this!

I especially LOVE the puppet!

Do you know who Burr Tillstrom is?

The dedication notes that he was a famous puppeteer, and a distinguished citizen of Saugatuck.

But do you know who he is?

Burr Tillstrom created those famous puppets, Kukla, Fran, and Ollie.

There.  I taught you something.

I feel accomplished.

If you are looking for something to do I would highly recommend Saugatuck.
