| Description: Known as the Allaman Memorial Fountain, this playful water feature greeted parishioners from its position between the North parking lot and the Northeast corner of Guild Hall. It was given in memory of Marie A. Allaman (1925-1969), who had been a Kansas City resident her entire life. Marie was married to John M. Allaman, Jr. (1921-1978), a prominent florist. This stone fountain was carved by artisans of the Erkins Studios of New York City, New York, in 1969. It has two small cherubs on the top of the fountain, and water jets played water down in to a large pool at the base of the fountain. (The basin of the fountain was constructed of molded concrete.) This memorial sits close to the ground, as it is only a little over four feet high, but the pleasant smiles on the faces of the cherubs are a delight to the eye. |
