The "4 Angels Memorial," a temporary memorial for Cora, Dawson, and Callan Clancy, was unveiled in front of Holy Family Church in Duxbury on Wednesday, March 1, according to a GoFundMe campaign.

"The memorial consists of four individual searchlights pointed up into the sky (three yellow and one purple) a symbol of their eternal light and to honor their memory," the campaign reads. "The memorial will run the month of March starting with a candlelight vigil the first weekend of March."

The Clancy children were allegedly strangled to death by their mother Lindsay Clancy on Tuesday, Jan. 24, as previously reported by Daily Voice.

Lindsay virtually appeared in court for her kids' murder two weeks later, where she was ordered to stay in the hospital until she is cleared to be moved to a rehabilitation center.

The memorial also honors 6-year-old Lane Ladd who died after a "brief and sudden illness" in December 2022, according to her obituary.

All of the proceeds from the GoFundMe will go straight to the rental of the searchlights and electric bill at Holy Family Church. The remaining funds will be donated to the Love for Lane playground project.
