A pink granite pyramid is crowned by a mother’s head cut from a stone mass, next to her are her children. The triangle of black granite on the earth is directed down, where the ashes of the victims rest, and red - is directed towards the sky, where the soul ascends. Together they form the Star of David , where only one word is carved in Hebrew : “REMEMBER” [5]
