A Tree Planted for Steven
Dec 6, 2017
My sweet sister and her husband planted a tree in honor of my late son, Steven. The following is a text conversation to thank them for this generous and loving gesture.
Me:
Thank you both so much for the sweet honor to Steven. Do you have any idea how much he loved trees? During a tribute night held to remember Steven, so many shared stories of finding him barefooted, sitting in a tree, sipping tea. So very kind, thoughtful, and loving.
Sister:
He used to take my son for walks and they would sit in a tree, for hours, just talking. My son never told me, until now.
P.S.
I don’t know whose idea it was, but they are using Steven’s guitar for our church’s anniversary service. All the old members of the church band were there. It does wonders for my heart and my brain to know that he will be represented in so many ways.
