Westphalia, Missouri

Unicorns on Parade:  "Love you always" reads the epitaph, and the unicorn underscores the word love. That's because the unicorn became a symbol of pure love during the medieval period, perhaps the type of love a parent has for a child, like the 12-year old buried here. She may also have played with My Little Ponies, a few which were unicorns. St. Joseph Parish Cemetery. [2015]
