Jeffrey statue is about our hope for children

The creation and unveiling yesterday of the statue of Jeffrey Baldwin is a declaration of our hope and expectation for our children. The statue is attached to a park bench and as Councillor Paula Fletcher said it is a place to spend a moment with Jeffrey. This little boy was terribly abused and denied the necessities of life.  He died at the age of five in 2002. The charming bronze memorial is located in Greewood Park at Greenwood Ave. and Dundas Street E.  It was commissioned by an Ottawa man Todd Bryce (above right). He read about the case and of Jeffrey’s love of his superman outfit. Twitter photos
