Wendy

Planted a Living Legacy Tree for her son, Corey.

“Corey could still go on living.”

After losing her son Corey, Wendy couldn’t imagine visiting him in a traditional cemetery with only a plaque in the ground.

Choosing a Living Legacy Tree gave her a different way to remember him. Knowing that Corey could continue through the tree, and that she could watch it grow, brought Wendy comfort during her grief.

Over the past 11 months, Mornington Green has become a special place for Wendy to spend time with Corey. She brings her chair, a book and a coffee, and simply sits beneath his tree.

For Wendy, it has become a peaceful place to remember her son while watching his tree continue to grow.
