I WOULD LIKE TO THANK "MARIPOSA" MARIE-FOR HER KINDNESS IN SHARING THESE MUSEUM PICS WITH ME--THANK YOU ;-)

In 1995, the tragic death of Selena rocked the community and millions of fans all around the world. Several private citizens erected a statue to honor the greatest star to ever come out of Corpus Christi. Many people visit the Selena Statue on a daily basis to remember her inspiration and pay homage to a Corpus Christi legend
