Description
We were relaxing in the small cafe in front of Newport Beach Pier while sipping down some cold drinks on a very hot afternoon. I took some photos, street scenes of the area. Vacationers and tourists enjoying the wonderful afternoon. This memorial statue of lifeguard Ben Carlson dominated the pier front. A wonderful dedication to a fallen hero who fell prey to the ocean while saving another. I didn't realize the significance of it till later.
It was designed by his brother in-law Jake Janz and dedicated July 6, 2016. A student memorial scholarship has been established in Ben's name. For more details visit their website at : http://www.bencarlsonfoundation.org/
