Sorry for my absence for so long. It has been difficult managing everything we were doing to honor Stephen while going through the grieving process and getting back to work again. Everybody has been so wonderful and we appreciate all the love and support. Stephen's teachers let us know the school was planting a tree in Stephen's honor and asked us what type of tree we would like planted. We decided that a Yoshino Cherry tree would be our choice. The tree has pretty white blossoms that make us think about how innocent and pure Stephen was and at the same time grows to be a very large tree like Stephen's personality and character. I will post pictures of the Tree Dedication on March 6, 2009 at Stephen's school, Forsyth Central High School. Unfortunately, I can't post any more pictures due to Gmail limitations. I went to delete some pictures and couldn't do it. I am going to create a second blog site for the pictures hopefully in a few days.

Thanks again - Jeff
