MEMORIAL
A place of remembering for anyone who has lost a loved one.

Plans to bring an Angel of Hope to Bluffton began in February 2003, when one person learned of the Angel and shared her vision to create a quiet place where families could reflect and remember lost loved ones.

The Angel of Hope Planning Committee that now shares this vision is made up of several Wells County residents, some of whom have lost a child of their own.

The group retained an architect and together they were able to create a park setting with landscaping for shade and privacy with the Angel as the centerpiece.

Directions to the Park

The park is located at the intersection of Bennett and Wabash streets. This setting provides a soothing sound of the water and a view of the beautiful Wabash river. The park includes brick walkways and several benches for those wishing to enjoy the park and remember their loved ones.

The City of Bluffton graciously agreed to allow the committee to build the park on land donated by the city. The park is maintained as a city park although part of the moneys raised by the committee will be set aside to create an ongoing fund to help maintain the park.
