Snow — Crown Point’s renowned white deer — will be remembered Sunday in a memorial at Crown Point United Methodist Church.
“When I first heard the deer was hit and euthanized, I just saw this outpouring of really genuine grief from people. People are hurting over this,” Wilkins said. First United Methodist originally had a pet blessing service planned for Sunday, so it made sense to tie to the two events together. The memorial for Snow begins at 1 p.m. Sunday at First United Methodist Church in Crown Point, followed by a pet blessing at 1:30 p.m.“We will have public time together. The Mayor is going to speak. I’m going to speak. We invite anybody and everybody who was affected to come and be a part of that,” Wilkins said.
Dr. Kate Hodson, an equine veterinarian with a practice in Hebron, tended to Snow after she was struck, assisting Indiana Department of Natural Resources Conservation Officer Alex Neel. Jasper County Animal Control Director Tori Nuest helped tranquilize Snow. “Deer are actually pretty competitive. With her being white, it would be difficult,” Hodson said. They were unable to find a wildlife sanctuary facility able to house an adult deer instead of a fawn.
