Description: The statue is in memory of the victims lost at sea during the Galveston hurricane of September 8, 1900. A "Place of Remembrance" to commemorate the 100-year anniversary of the storm. The 10-foot-tall bronze sculpture portrays a family - a father, mother and child - clinging together. One of the man's arms is reaching for the sky, and the other is around his wife. She is cradling their baby in her arms.
