This unique bronze memorial of a young boy holding his "buddy" (a frog) was placed April 2009 in The Children's Park of Tyler, Texas (below), as a loving tribute to Jackson Feliciano.
The step-by-step process from clay design to foundry to finished bronze sculpture is shown above – (far right) Tom's clay original; (moving left) the mold, a wax duplicate, and the non-patina bronze.
 The final with patina is shown at far right, plus a variation of the sculpture as a little girl created for a "Christ Our Rock" scene for Our Lady of Victory Church in Tannersville, Pennsylvania.
