WILDWOOD, N.J. (CBS) -- The Bobby Rydell Foundation has announced plans to put a statue of the late singer in Wildwood.
The beach resort was one of Rydell's favorite places.
His 1963 song "Wildwood Days" blares on the boardwalk often during the summer season.
The statue will be 6 feet tall and made of bronze.
Rydell died last April at the age of 79.
