HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE
Dead Trees Become Living Monuments
On January 21, 1994, an Arbor Day ceremony
held at Lakeside Park brought together
Councilman and former Mayor Judy M. Pierman
and residents Ray and Joyce Lilly. An idea was
conceived which soon became a reality—dead
trees were turned into living monuments. Sam
Golden soon became part of the group. He
helped install the bronze plaques which have
donor names inscribed upon them.
From dead trees, the artists gave life to uniquely
sculpted aquatic creatures. Each carefully
crafted wood sculpture serves as a memorial to
those whose naives are on the plaques.
On August 17, 1996, the occasion of its 40th
Birthday, the sculptures were dedicated to the
Village of North Palm Beach. Thanks to the
caring and nurturing of Ray and Joyce Lilly and
Sam Golden, the community will long be able to
enjoy the Lakeside Park sculptures.

TO THE VILLAGE OF NORTH PALM BEACH...
ENJOY and care for "our" project. It
was created with love and care. Treat it
well so that your children and their
children can enjoy the pride of the past.
This brochure is dedicated to those of our
residents who take pride in their Village
and especially to RAY AND JOYCE LILLY
who not only planted the "seed" for the
sculpture project but nurtured it to fruition
with the help of Sam Golden, residents
and dedicated Village emplavees.
Special thanks to Dennis Kelly, Village
Manager, and the North Palm Beach
Village Council for their generous
support of this innovative venture.
