In this episode of "State Lore," we journey to Butte, Montana, a town famous for its mining history and legendary locals like Evel Knievel and Judy Martz. Nestled in the Rockies, Butte's story is one of resilience and survival, a testament to the spirit of its people. We'll explore the inspiring tale of Bob O'Bill, a local electrician whose vow amidst personal tragedy led to the creation of the monumental "Our Lady of the Rockies." Hear how a community banded together to erect a 90-foot statue in honor of all mothers, turning a personal promise into a symbol of hope and unity that stands tall over Butte. This episode pairs uniquely with the whimsical illustrations and quirky facts from my Quick Facts Books. For more fascinating stories or to get your own copy, visit quickfactsbooks.com.
