Doll Houses
The three dollhouses shown here are similar in that all were built by grieving parents for a lost daughter. The two houses in Indiana, located approx. 35 miles apart, have been vandalized several times over the years but they have been restored and maintained by interested citizens. These shelters go beyond the usual in that they are not only for the protection of the grave but provide a place for the spirit of the child to be happy playing with their toys.
