The bench is out on a projection (called Rocky Point Island) of rocky outcrop, that is somewhat separated from Balmoral esplanade by a strip of sand, and an Arch Bridge.
The forest-green painted wooden bench is about 5 foot wide, and made up of multiple narrow slats of timber, with pronounced curving shape at the top of the backrest, and front of the seat. The seat part of the bench has a lot of chips of the paint, showing the undercoat. The two outer supporting metal straps are set into the sloping concrete pads, while the central strap provides extra sterength and support. The slat that the cast bronze plaque is inset into is about twice the width of the other slats. The plaque has a textured black background, and is also held in place with four Philips-head, bronze screws. It reads:
MURRAY, MARY AND CYNTHIA
"Into the air, as breath into the wind
would they had stayed"
Forever in Our Hearts
