There is a unique story behind each Wind Phone that is best told by its creator and/or steward. No one can tell it the way they can, so to that end, the format for Featured Wind Phone stories is to share the creator/steward's responses to the interview questions verbatim in their voice. Sharing our stories helps us to connect and heal and may inspire someone else to create or visit a Wind Phone.

Our Featured Wind Phone is in Milford, Connecticut. Amy Bowman worked with her town to place this gorgeous Wind Phone is loving memory of her granddaughter Brianna; the Wind Phone is named "Brianna's Wind Phone." Thank you, Amy, for sharing your beautiful Wind Phone with us.
Where is your Wind Phone located?
North St.
Milford, CT 06460
It is located at the upper duck pond on North Street heading to Milford Center.
What year and month did you place your Wind Phone at this location?
May 27, 2025. I started with the city for approval - it took14 months.
Why did you choose this location?
Easy access to locate and to get to. It is in an open area but not an area that is used by public too often, there is the pond and lots of trees. I placed it near trees so it will be nice in the summer shade overlooking the pond. Only one problem - geese issues that I hope the city will continue to work on cleaning up the mess they make
Is your Wind Phone dedicated to or in memory of someone special?
In memory of my beautiful forever 26-year-old granddaughter who lived with me since she was 15. I didn’t just lose my granddaughter; I lost my daughter.
Do you have any advice for someone thinking of creating a Wind Phone?
Do not give up. Be persistent with getting your approvals. Reach out for help to make sure you are dealing with the people who are in charge. I stated with my mayor. After three months of getting nowhere I found out my son's best friend is best friends with the mayor.
