Memorial Gardens in memory of our lost loved ones

Whether it be a lost parent, loved one, or family pet memorial gardens bring beauty and pleasant memories. It is a quiet place for life to grow in memory of our deceased. We have a garden with flowers planted annually just to swith it up with some inspirational stones with words such as love, life etc.. in memory of my mother. I also have a grave in the backyard where my beloved Shelby (my bulldog) is buried and instead of a sad place I surrounded it with stones and planted several Flox plants which have grown over the past 3 years and engulfed the entire circle making it a beautiful circle of life each spring. I look at both places with only fond memories and no sadness. To bring even more life to these gardens, add a bird feeder or birdbath and a bench, this always attracts birds and butterflies and creates a very healing environment.
