The Virgin Mary of Bridgeport
Statuary can be found in many places, sometimes elegant tributes to those past as found in Mountain Grove Cemetery or Seaside Park. Other times, a simple yet beloved tribute to a religious icon. Some friends and I discovered this statue on the way home from the Port Jefferson Ferry. We had made a wrong turn and were driving along a street in an area known as The Hollow. God had sent us there to preserve this tribute digitally. The Virgin has moved on but she shall live forever due to the wonders of digital photography. Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen
