Moving all the way across the country is stressful and can be both exciting and traumatic for families.

UPDATE: see photo above for a look at the Rainbow just six months later. What a marvelous way to say 'thanks for everything!"
"We planted this lemon tree in memory of my dad, in honor of his 30 years of service as a Navy Chaplain. It is on the grounds of the assisted living residence where my mother still lives, and she enjoys taking daily walks out to visit the tree.
