A 15-foot handmade metal cross was driven seven hours from Mineral Wells to Uvalde to help the community on their road to healing.
“We’re going to have to get a bunch of hands on so it don’t get squirrelly. Until this one gets tight,” cross maker Michael Collins said.
Collins placed a floral wreath at the bottom of the cross, admiring the work he and the team did to get it there. “I’m very proud of it, for the way it looks. Other than that, other than that it’s going to be a nightmare to me,” Collins said standing next to his handiwork. On the cross, there’s a slot that Collins said is for the letters to Heaven. It’s placed there so all of the children can write to the friends they lost, knowing their words will stay safe and untouched.In a town that’s turned into a living memorial, growing and changing by the day, Collins believes this cross, made by a father mourning his son, will make an impact.
