I planted a spruce tree in memory of each of my parents when they died. Mom died 11 years ago and Dad 2 years ago. I planted spruce trees because I wanted something that didn't loose it's leaves in the winter - evergreen for everlasting. I actually referr to them as Mom's tree and Dad's tree - I like having them in my yard as a rememberance because I'm far away from where they lived and the rest of the family. It's a great idea to plant the tree at the church where everyone else can enjoy it also. Eleanor p.s. - this is a pic of Mom's tree after a February snow. Dad's is in the front yard. |
