Story
After the very sad and shocking news about Joe passing, I thought it would be a nice idea to have a tree planted for him on King Georges walk in Hayle. Joe used to love to sit here and play his guitar, and it was a favourite place of his to come and watch the world go by. I thought a Monkey puzzle tree would suit Joe down to the ground- unique, funky and just damn cool :-)
anything people can donate would be amazing. Ive been quoted around £200 for a juvenile (around 5yrs) tree, planting/care and a memorial plaque.
Thanks guys, loads of love xx

5 years agoHi everyone. I spoke to Hayle council earlier and they’ve said joes plaque has been made but they think it might be best to delay the planting til February/early March so the tree has a better chance of making it. Hope this is ok with everyone, I was hoping for it to be planted by Christmas but finding the right tree took a while! I will keep you all posted with dates etc for planting, ive posted a pic of what the plaque will look like on joes Facebook page :) lots of love xx
