The Memorial Tree Planting
Gathering for the Ceremony
This Dog was either the smartest or laziest dog I've
ever seen,brought a bone over to bury after the hole was dug for the tree....
Geoff Koome carries the urn, Al Brown and Kevin Lundy
look on.....
Some of Dutch's closest friends and family sprinkled
some of his ashes before planting his tree , in addition, some things he liked ,including 2 brands of beer, Canadian,
of course, an American cigarette,and a Canadian ten dollar bill were added.
The Tree is planted, then watered with a generous helping
of beer.
