Excerpt from
A Garden of Love & Healing by Marsha Olson (Fairview Press)
"While memorial gardens are special, created out of love, they still require labor to prepare, install and maintain. Fortunately, the physical effort it takes to make a garden can often be a useful expenditure of energy.
Sometimes when grieving, you need the physical release that a challenging project will take. (And) you may find comfort in inviting friends or family to help with the installation ... so you can talk and reminisce as you commune with the healing force of nature."
