In loving memory of Nicole

Published February 12, 2025 by

Nicole, we dedicate this tree to you in celebration of your life and all that you achieved.

A precious daughter to Grace and Joe, a loving girlfriend to Brandon and a caring friend to all who knew her. She had the biggest heart and radiated love and joy to all around her.

Nicole had a caring and selfless nature. Even when dealing with her own difficulties she always thought of others, sending over 500 care packages to people struggling with their own health issues, trauma and bereavement, sparking joy and hope in the darkest of times. Nicole was a selfless lady with the biggest heart.

She was also fiercely proud of her career in the NHS, and it was clear to all around her that she thrived on helping and supporting others through the most difficult times.

Nicole was pure joy: a pageant queen, karaoke star, TikTok influencer, the life and soul of every party, filling every room with laughter. A strong willed, determined, beautiful soul.

Taken far too soon, forever 30, forever cherished and forever missed.

With all our love to Gracie, Joey and Brandon, from your TKD family x

The hardest goodbye…

Published October 4, 2024 by

Our beautiful daughter, and mother of her 3 teenage sons, Toni, was taken from us October 2023. Toni spent most of her adult life in the Corstorphine area, so it seemed like a fitting tribute to have a purple sycamore in her memory. Now we have somewhere that we can go and reflect on our wonderful years we had with this beautiful soul, who is so sorely missed by all.
Forever 37 💜

Anze and his love for Scotland

Published June 21, 2024 by

What to say? How to describe​ you Anze?

I had the ​privilege of being your mum for 10,890 days.

I am and will forever be grateful for having such a pure soul in my life. I learned so much from you Anze: what I should improve, what is best to let go, how to surrender and embrace whatever is coming my way.

Already when you were small, you were the sweetest child, who always wanted harmonious surroundings. If there were 10 cakes and 11 kids, you would give up your own slice so nobody would be sad. You were a very good observer and turned vivacious only when you felt at ease. Very private, yet kind, funny and always ready to help others.

At 26 years of age you moved from Belgium to Scotland. You seemed to like your new life. You finished your studies of psychology, got a job, socialised and stepped into adult life. Not without some challenges.

Still, you remained the most responsible, brave and respectful person I have ever met. Never a bad thought about others. You loved listening to music and going to the gym. Those were the two worlds where your soul felt at ease and in harmony.

You died alone in Edinburgh of SUDEP and were found two days later when I became alarmed by no response to my calls. I knew you were gone several hours before receiving official confirmation.

I never said goodbye to your body and finally embraced your ashes 3 weeks after your death. In Scotland I met wonderful, warm people who soothed my soul and helped me in those first days.

You were buried in your home town in Slovenia surrounded by family and those who knew you as a child. You were gently put to rest on the notes of bagpipes playing Amazing Grace in memory of your love for Scotland and your new chosen life.

May this tree stand proudly bearing your name and memory, while
my soul embraces yours in eternity.

Forever loved and remembered.

Colin was a great dad and husband and amazing chef. He loved life and it is so unfair his life was cut so short.
Taken at the age of 36 due to brain tumour.
Cramond was our favourite place, we used to spent a lot of time together there as a family and I think it’a only right to have a little special place there to remember him.
We will never forget. We miss you every day.
I miss you every minute of the day.
Wherever you are, you are always in my heart.
Love you always and forever.
Hana, Caitlin and Brianna

Jarvis, the best boy in the world

Published April 19, 2024 by

We dedicated the tree in clermiston park to our dog Jarvis, this was his stomping ground, his park and he loved it! There wasn’t a blade of grass or tree he wasn’t familiar with. He first stepped foot on here at just 9 weeks old and the last his paws touch it was the day left us at 14 years and 8 months and he was here everyday in between those times. He really was the bestest, most handsomest boy in the world and we will miss him for the rest of our lives.

Dad passed away in Limaria on 1st February 2023. He is survived and remembered by his family members in the UK, South Africa and Spain. I’ll always miss his stories, charisma and words of wisdom.

It’s lovely to support local trees and to have a space where we can remember him. I wish that I could have shown him this beautiful place.

Remembering mum

Published July 11, 2023 by

It’s been 17 years this year since we lost mum. It’s taken this long to get round to finding the right way to remember her outside of the memories we have of her.

A huge motivation for this is my seven year old daughter Pearl who never met her, keeps asking about her and as mum was cremated we don’t have somewhere to go to remember her or pay respects.

I grew up in a flat on Halmyre Street close to Leith Links park and we moved away when my mum married her husband Ian. If there is anywhere in the world mum was at home it was Edinburgh so this is the perfect spot for her memory.

In loving memory of William David Stott

Born in Sheffield but bred in Edinburgh. A wonderful man who never forgot his roots despite living south of the border for many years. A fitting tree memorial & a return to your childhood playground & treasured family memories. Your garden was a joy to you, May this tree provide much pleasure to others onwards into the future.

This tree is a memorial to the life and works of Sheila Elizabeth Cooper. Sheila was a Canadian/American woman and mother of Calli Middleton, who was an exceptional saxophonist, singer and composer as well as a wonderful human being. Her life was dedicated to personal growth, love and family, motherhood, music and her friendships and relationships.

“Il Colonnello” was the lighthouse of our family. He dedicated his whole life to his wife, children and grandchildren and took care of his vineyard and olive grove to make wine and oil he gifted to friends and family. His love fertilised the soil as well as our own roots. Keep enlightening our way and we won’t be lost.

Lucas Adamson loved to woof, sniff, strut his stuff and run free in Abercorn Park. He was an awfy friendly soul and his waggy tail and healing ways earned him many pals and legend status.
He loved a treat in life and is now treating the park to a new tree and new life whilst he now runs free above the clouds.
