The Healing Heart totem pole, also known as the Craig Healing totem, is a memorial totem pole in Craig, Alaska, United States. Installed in 1995, it was carved by Stan Marsden in honor of his son, Jimmy Marsden, who had died in 1991 of a cocaine overdose. Marsden invited others from the community to participate in the carving with him and dedicated the pole to Alaskan youth and people who had died from substance use in Alaska. Though not part of the original design, the totem pole depicts a figure holding a basket of roses; at the installation ceremony, attendees placed roses at the base of the totem pole to commemorate those they had lost.
