A CARDINAL EXPERIENCE
GRATEFUL GARDEN
In Memory of John Selkirk Bryce
Warkworth, Ontario
My father-in-law passed away on October 30, 2018. In spring the following year, my husband and I planted a memorial garden in his memory. We planted several of his favorite shrubs and flowers. We also added a bench so that my mother-in-law or my husband and I can sit and share memories or sit quietly and think about this man who was incredibly wise, giving and deeply loved by his family and friends.
Each time I sit within the memorial garden, without failure, a stunning red cardinal appears. I also always hear their beautiful song within the wooded area nearby. I always give thanks for this glorious sign! It brings me tremendous comfort, as it lets me know that my father-in-law is sending his love whenever we are thinking about him in our “Grateful Garden.”
