Tree for Leni

Hi, this is Michael, Leni's 4th son. Yesterday a group of Leni's friends met after a lunch meeting to plant a tree in her honor. For me it was a very moving and significant moment for more than one reason. I know there are many facets to mom, and in meeting each new person with whom she had a relationship I get to see a new part of that facet; what an honor for me. This group of women, meant the world to her, and it is apparent that they to her. I am so thankful for them.

The tree is a lavendar crepe myrtle and is planted in front of McKinley Park Library. It is the second tree to the right of the front door as you face the Library. Please visit this living symbol to Leni. I know I will take my boys there regularly.

I hope to post photos of the event shortly.
