In Memory of Brian
In loving memory of our son Brian,
2/2/79 - 11/1/07.
2/2/79 - 11/1/07.
On November 1, 2007, our son Brian died as a result of a tragic construction accident. In our quest to find something meaningful from our loss, we honored his wish to give the gift of life by donating his organs and tissues. Brian's gift has become a remarkable story to us, one that we want to share with others.
That's how Brian's Garden came to be. Brian loved Butte Vista Farm with all its flora and fauna. To celebrate this love, his life, and his memory, we chose a hill overlooking our farm and Bear Butte for his garden.
Every year brings new flowers and sights. The weather plays a huge role in what blooms. Some years are too dry for much to happen, and you have to search for the tiny blossoms. During wet years, the flowers are plentiful. The garden is truly like our lives, ever changing, surviving through good and bad.
