It is the only major funerary sculpture in Crittenden County, and it commemorates the life and accomplishments of the Rev.

The monument is a marble statue of an angel Шаблон:Convert in height, mounted on a column of marble blocks Шаблон:Convert high.[1]

The memorial was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[2]
