Kudos to Nadine Brown and Teri Murphy who have really polished/enhanced the Memorial Garden which to most visitors/viewers who honor their deceased family members would not notice. Their activities have included but were not limited to:
- Fertilized the rhododendrons
- Transplanted hosta for even and symmetric arrangement around the marble bench
- Weeded (of dandelions and voluntarily transplanted/seeded saplings) and mulched two upper tier areas
- Trimmed back the myrtle from the wall of name placards for better access to reduce plant destruction
- Removed old extraneous bulb (e.g., tulip) plantings
- Trimmed shoots, dead branches, and suckers off the larger trees
- Mulched the ground floor areas
Thank you very much, again, Teri and Nadine, for honoring the departed with this well maintained space. Photos of their garden efforts:
Secondly, thank you to Erich and Ann Marie Jensen who this week finished mulching trees both right and left to the general entrance area of the Rectory that were not completed on the May 6th work day!
Lastly, big thanks to Karen and Jeff Cole who have begun transplanting grasses, penstemon and coneflowers along the stark gray cement wall at the lower sidewalk from the east parking lot to the front steps of the church. Stay tuned for future photos, as the plants grow and fill in this area.
Respectfully submitted,
Erich Jensen
