Memorial Trees

 

The Mia Taylor Foundation plants memorial trees in honor and remembrance of Nebraska children* who have passed away.

 

A memorial tree, also called a living tribute, remembrance tree or sympathy tree that grows for generations to come. 

 

Why do people plant memorial trees?

1.  A tree planted in someone's memory is a living tribute that benefits present and future generations, and is perhaps the most fitting memorial gift of all.

​

2.  A memorial tree can refer to a tree planted in someone's honor or memory in a place of significance to them or their family. 

​

3.  As one life ends, something new grows from it. Planting trees lets you express your sympathy and condolences in a unique and spiritual way, and your gift of trees will endure and grow stronger, blossoming with life, year after year, for generations to come.

​

4. For some, a memory tree is viewed as the ultimate gift that  contributes to a healthier environment for all.  Trees play a critical role in our environment including tree replacement due to disease, storms and the natural life cycle of trees.

​

Regardless of one's personal reason(s) for planting a memorial tree, it is a lasting legacy and living tribute to a loved one or someone special.  The Mia Taylor Foundation plants memorial trees in honor and remembrance of Nebraska children who have passed away well before their time.
