A memorial tree in a National Forest
A tree planted in a loved one's name through A Living Tribute, a lasting marker that asks nothing of the family.
from $10.00
A Living Tribute plants a tree in a National Forest in memory of someone who has died, and sends the family a card telling them it was done. It is a lasting marker that needs nothing from the people grieving, which is part of why it works.

Who it suits
This suits a family who loved the outdoors, or a giver who wants to mark a loss without adding an object to a grieving home. A single tree starts around $10, and you can dedicate more. The family receives a printed card, not a task.
The tradeoff is that the gift is a gesture and a card rather than something to hold. For a recipient who would rather have a physical keepsake, a small memorial object may mean more.
