Man sees Virgin Mary on neighbour’s roof

Amid the ice and snow of winter, Pequabuck residents found a sign that has warmed their hearts. What started as an ice flow has slowly formed into what residents are seeing as the Virgin Mary. Randy Blanchette, the man who spotted Mother Mary, brought it to the attention of his kids and neighbours.



“At first it just looked like a waterfall. As the days went on it started to melt and form the Virgin Mary,” Blanchette said. The ice formation sits between two windows on Blanchette’s neighbour’s roof, and due to the warmer weather has been getting smaller each day. “It’s so awesome. It changes minute by minute,” Blanchette said, later adding, “I think it’s a natural phenomenon.”

Blanchette pointed out the veil he sees covering Mary, and how it resembles the statue they put into bathtubs. “It looks like Virgin Mary, plain and simple,” he said. Jayden and Zacherie Blanchette, Randy’s daughter and son, said they also see the Virgin Mary.

“It’s Mother Mary,” said Jayden. Jayden is an altar girl at the Immaculate Conception Church in Terryville, and Zacherie will soon be receiving his first communion. “We are religious,” said Blanchette, who asked that the street featuring the Virgin Mary not be identified.
