“I saw hello to them whenever we visit her home and hope that they confer some sort of blessing.”

Sounds kind of like a graven image/pagan thing you have going on there. They are just chunks of stuff.

And that picture of your mother is just a piece of paper. It’s not the paper that makes you think of your mom, it’s the image on it.

Same with statues. Mercat is not talking to the chunk of stone, rather to the Saint that it represents.
