AN OREGONIAN SPECIAL REPORT

When a baby dies



Kathleen Buckley shares a memorial cast of her daughter Lily. The casting was made by Lily's father and his close friends, including a makeup artist familiar with masks, shortly after Lily's death. A plaster cast was then made into a permanent resin casting. "Everything I have I treasure," Buckley says. "Whatever touched them, or was a part of them becomes really valuable."
