This gift of A Pet Companion`s Tribute Garden is presented to you to acknowledge your grief.  A memorial garden is a garden made with love.  It is a living, loving tribute to the companion who is gone from your life, but not absent from your heart.  To assist you with the inception of this special garden, we have carefully chosen a Red Maple seedling kit, also known as the tree of calm; a memorial rock that speaks the message of your heart; and a book to guide you in the design of your commemorative garden. May this gift and the garden you create provide comfort and aid in your healing as you grieve the loss of your pet companion. As your garden grows, please remember others are thinking of you and acknowledging your grief through each change of season.
