The camera faces the Memorial Hermman The Woodlands Medical Center's "Proud Souls" art bench, which looks like two large metal waves or wings spreading inward over the bench. Sitting on the bench is Linda Nelson and her husband. Behind and around them are their three children with their partners and seven children.
