Dear fellow members,
It is with a sad heart that I reach out to you seeking your thoughts and opinions.
As you may know, the Club planted a white Dogwood tree near the pavilion at the Burkesville Rally site in honour of Carson Wright. In 2018, to remember and honour Polly's daughter, Connie, I planted a pink Dogwood tree near Carson's tree. They look lovely growing together.
With your approval, I would like to plant a Yoshino Flowering Cherry tree nearby Carson's and Connie's trees in memory of Larry.
With your approval and in lieu of me coming to Larry's services, I will go to Burkesville on Wednesday and plant the tree during his visitation time. I will use this time to think of you all, and especially of Larry and his family.
When I planted Connie's tree, I spoke to a worker there at the rally site. I asked him to help take care of Connie's tree and gratefully, he did. I'll try to do the same with Larry's tree.
If this meets with your approval, I will plant the tree on Wednesday. My thoughts will be with you all.
God's peace, Larry. You were a gift.
Respectfully,
Hugh Bland
