Commemorate a loved one or friend with a memorial tree or bench
in their favorite park.
The Bristol Parks, Recreation, Youth and Community Services Department is proud to present its
Celebrating a Life: Memorial Programs.
A Memorial Tree or Bench in one of Bristol's public parks is a lovely way to honor family and friends while supporting sustainability.
- Memorials establish a physical location where one can go to remember, grieve, pray, and commune in memory of a deceased loved one.
- A Memorial Tree or Bench can help heal and transform grief, offering lasting comfort, solace, joy, and connection.
- A Memorial Tree creates a living legacy and tribute to someone who has died, benefiting the earth and environment, as well as present and future generations.
- Memorial Benches convey a message of love that will remain for generations to see and visit. Memorial Benches also benefit the community and public, both young and old.
