Daytona Beach might get a visit from the Mary McLeod Bethune sculpture

DAYTONA BEACH  About four years after setting out on the journey to create a sculpture of Mary McLeod Bethune that would one day stand in the U.S. Capitol s Statuary Hall, the marble likeness of the trailblazing educator and civil rights activist is just a few weeks away from completion. Master sculptor Nilda Comas has been toiling in her artists studio in the Italian hamlet of Pietrasanta, first creating smaller clay and plaster models in preparation for chiseling out a statue of Bethune from a 4-ton block of marble.

While attendees at Tuesday s event said they d preferred the idea of getting one shot instead of two, the ability to get vaccinated was more important than trying to avoid a second date with a needle. Deltona resident Mary Sesay got her first vaccine dose Tuesday afternoon at Wes Crile Park.
