176 Months

             I remember receiving a picture 15 years ago of this little tree planted on the Hyatt property in San Antonio for Lola. The managers stood around it trying to smile, and there was this little plaque with her name on it. Everytime JP returns there for work, I get a picture of the Lola tree. It is bigger, stronger, and more colorful now. I would best describe it as "full of life." Can you imagine the birds that have stopped there to rest and sing a song or the squirrels that have raced up an down those branches? Even the leaves that now fill it, make it look SO alive. It maybe the perfect resting spot for some shade in the hot Texas sun, each time someone would have to stop and  read "Lola's Tree." They may wonder who she is or what is the story of her tree.I could tell the story. It's about this beautiful angel who left us all too soon and reminds us in so many ways that she is always with us.


Love,

The Mother of an Angel
