************************** JAC’S TREE ***************************
…………………………When Jac joined her Mom, Teresa and Franco, who have been taking care of us for years….they are our family……asked me what they could do for Jac? I had no idea, I could barely think. Teresa said that Franco had an idea, and she would like to tell me. I said “Teresa you really don’t have to do anything. I know how much you loved Jac.” She said that Franco had an idea they thought I would like. “OK, what’s Franco’s idea”. She told me that they would like to plant a tree in Jac’s honor……It took my breath away….the idea was perfect. I knew Jac would LOVE this. She said I should pick out the tree and tell them where I wanted it planted. I didn’t hesitate. I knew immediately what the tree should be, and where it should be planted. Jac’s favorite trees are Pink Cherry Blossom Trees. Jac told me years ago, “I want an allee of cherry trees just outside my kitchen window, so I can look at them all day long”. I had them planted…..Each spring Jac loved to look at these wonderful pink blossoms. They were and are incredibly beautiful, and I’ve taken many picture of the flowers. When finally the flowers would fall, Jac always wanted to look at the beautiful carpet of pink. It was always sad to see them go..Jac would always say, “next Spring”………Franco planted “Jac’s Tree” this past week, right in the center of our backyard where I can always see it from my kitchen, and when I bring the girls out to play……Some of my dear Linea Ladies sent to me a beautiful set of chimes, that are now at the base of Jac’s tree….I will forever be grateful. The music they play is soft and sweet……………………………Cherry Blossoms live a short life, but a magnificent one………………………………………………………………………………
……………………………………………………………………………………………They will always remind me of my Jac
