his time of year can be difficult for people who lost a loved one.  So that is why Chiles-Laman holds their Tree of Remembrance Service to help friends and family honor those they have lost.   This is the 32nd year for the service, which attracts couple of hundred people.  Besides the service, people who lost a loved one this past year get an ornament with their name engraved on it.  Organizers hope that the people leave with some peace, they can take through the holidays.
