Tree of Life - Crystal Mall, Waterford

Every spring, we honor the lives of the patients and families for whom we have had the privilege to care with a Tree of Life. Byles – MacDougall Funeral Service and Tuthill’s Nursery generously donate a blossoming pussy willow tree which is placed in the Crystal Mall. Paper ornaments which have been personalized with photographs, poems, or simply names of loved ones who have passed are hung on the tree creating a visible symbol of love. We invite you to visit during Mall hours to create your own ornament. Ornaments are free, donations are graciously accepted.
