What a beautiful tribute to an amazing, persistent tree and loving, persistent parents. Such wisdom in the trees and people around us.

Thank you for this beautiful share, on so many levels. I see both parents (wedding photo) in your face. This is one incredible legacy, which not everyone would see as your eyes can. Your dad’s wisdom in planting the Virginia Pine is poignant. Your photos honor both the tree and your father.

I’m sorry for your loss, your mom’s, too. I acquired the role of widow about the same time as your mom. It’s definitely a whole new chapter. How awesome you have one another still. 🙏📿✨💞

I’m so sorry for your loss. 💞 Losing a parent is hard. Losing a life partner is a grief beyond what I can imagine. 🙏🏼 I’m grateful for the tree outside my window, and my mom still living in the farmhouse next door.
