Hopkinsville Children's Memorial Park is a serene and peaceful place located in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, dedicated to the memory of children who have passed away. The park is spread across 15 acres of lush greenery and features a beautiful pond, walking trails, and a playground.

One of the most prominent features of the park is the Angel of Hope statue, which stands tall at the center of the park and serves as a symbol of hope and comfort to families who have lost a child. The statue was erected in 2009 and has since become a popular attraction for visitors.

In addition to the Angel of Hope statue, the park also has a butterfly garden, a memorial wall, and a gazebo where families can come together and remember their loved ones. The park is open to visitors year-round, and admission is free.

Hopkinsville Children's Memorial Park is not just a place for mourning; it is also a place for celebration and remembrance of the precious lives that were lost too soon. The park is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit and serves as a beacon of hope for those who have suffered such a tremendous loss.

Jefferson Davis: 'We recognize the fact of the inferiority stamped upon that [Black] race of men by the Creator, and from the cradle to the grave, our Government, as a civil institution, marks that inferiority' –An excerpt from then U.S. Senator Jefferson Davis of Mississippi in the Senate to his abolitionist colleague Senator William H. Seward of New York, Senate Chamber, U.S. Capitol, 29 February 1860, as quoted in The Papers of Jefferson Davis, Volume 6, pp. 277–84. Transcribed from the Congressional Globe, 36th Congress, 1st Session, pp. 916–18. This is a monument to Jefferson Davis, funded by the Daughters of the Confederacy and even the Kentucky General Assembly[!?!] during the Jim Crow era. It is now a state museum. It is here because Fairview, Kentucky is the birthplace of Confederate President Jefferson Davis. During the Civil War, Davis could not travel to Kentucky because Kentucky remained and fought for the United States. It should be noted that despite Kentucky being a slave state, the overwhelming majority of Kentuckians joined up, fought for, and even sacrificed their lives for the United States, not the Confederacy. I find it interesting that the road sign marks Fairview as the birthplace of United States Joint Chief of Staff General J.W. Ralston, NOT the big huge monument in the background to its other native, Confederate Jefferson Davis.
