Tree of Remembrance to shine throughout holidays

The Lincoln County Historical Society is honored to sponsor the Tree of Remembrance for 2007. It is a highlight of the season for this community, and its lights will shine throughout the holiday season. The tree is located at the intersection of Peachtree and Main Streets, near the fountain.

A light "In Honor" or "In Memory" of family members and friends can be placed on the tree for a $1.00 donation for each name. Registers for the names are displayed at the following locations: City Pharmacy, Crawford-Breazeale Drug Co. and Jericho Florist. Requests may be mailed to: Mrs. Mobley Ross, P. O. Box 245, Lincolnton, GA 30817. You will be rewarded each time you see the lighted tree, the name listed in The Lincoln Journal, and the list displayed at City Hall. Those "In Honor" will be evidence that someone is very special, and those "In Memory" will be remembered by many and in many ways. No, there is no magic about the tree or lights, but isn't it just special to remember the people who make our lives extraordinary. When you see the tree, you'll feel glad!

All donations will be used for the maintenance and preservation of the Lincoln County Historical Park. Thank you for your participation and support. May your holidays be blessed with faith, hope and love! (Please note that donors' names are in parentheses.)
