St Jacobs Lions Memorial Forest

Since its inception in 1953, a number of our active members have passed away. On September 18, 1997, St Jacobs Lions Club held a dedication service for its unique Memorial Forest Program. The forest provides an opportunity to commemorate the life of a loved one by planting a tree - a living memorial in their memory. A tree symbolizes strength, shelter and durability and by planting a treee, it is a symbol of hope, a sign of a new beginning and a living tribute.

We Honor The Memory of The Following Deceased Members.

As long as memory recalls

Those who die may live

Until mid's eye dims

Immortality we give.
