As one of the Directors of Camp Healing Tree in Indianapolis, I
want to thank you for donating a LOV Notes Interactive Living Memorial
for use at our annual grief camp for over eighty young people in
Central Indiana. We were so pleased to add LOV Notes to the activities
we provide to enable growth and healing.LOV Notes fit beautifully with our philosophy of healthy grief expression. Not only did we encourage our campers to use LOV Notes, we also encouraged our 175+ volunteers to take time during the weekend to express their care for loved ones who have died. Many of the volunteers "dedicate" their service to the memory of someone precious and LOV Notes provided a "ritual" by which that could be acknowledged. Many campers also utilized LOV Notes as a means of communicating their emotions. We intend to make LOV Notes an annual part of Camp Healing Tree and we are grateful for your generosity and support. - Neil Schafer Just a note to let you know how much the kids and families love our LOV Notes. Even the really young ones understand and use it. I am very grateful and it is wonderful to have another tool to help the children keep a healthy connection to their loved one. Blessings, Bev

- JoAnne Andersen "LOV Notes did something for my mom that nothing else could do, and that was to give her a place to connect to the memory of her son, you have no idea how much that helped her the last year of her life", and for what LOV Notes did for my mom I will always be thankful." - Lisa Hunt "My siblings and I lost our mother almost 10 years ago very suddenly. Her body was cremated and there was never a "burial" because we spread her ashes somewhere special. So we never had a place to go that we could "talk" to her, or put flowers at her grave. It was difficult to go back to the place that her ashes were spread because it wasn't always available to us to have some privacy and peace. Now that we have a LOV Notes unit at our home, she really is available to us at any time. I feel like I have a place to go, and that it will be private. I now can put flowers around it in my garden, and my letters to her can never be read. From the moment that she passed away I have been writing to her, and I have kept all of it. Now I have a place that I can send those thoughts off to, and I know that she sees them. I am so thankful for this wonderful creation that is known as LOV Notes. It really has helped me to continue on my relationship with her, and feel connected to her spirit. It won't bring her back, but it also allows a part of her to stay with me, and having the LOV Notes in my garden has made that so much more of a reality to me. Thank you LOV Notes for what you have given me, and my family." - Katie Myron "The loss of a loved one is devastating. The heart marker is a memorial. A place to share great memories my friends will treasure forever." - John Colbert Donna Hanschu-Bissell [Quote from her book "Spirit In Flight"] "As a Certified Grief Counselor, I personally found the medium of the written word to be an important part of my ongoing process with learning to manage my grief."

Dear Gary and Robin, "Many patients do need an avenue of closing and/or maintaining a dialogue with their departed loved ones. LOV Notes from my personal experience can be a tremendous source of consolation. We live in memories; to be able to physically respond to our feelings through a LOV Note can serve as a deep personal and spiritual healing. Thank you for your efforts in helping others. Many are waiting for your LOV Notes". Sincerely yours, "Hi Robin, you and Gary have a wonderful product here that offers much consolation to those of us who continue to grieve and feel the loss of a loved one no matter how much time has passed. It is helping many people in our large family deal with the loss of those we loved so much! And what peace there is when I can put them into the RECEIVER one at a time! It really helped feel like I was truly connecting with her" Celebrating Life! "I think the LOV Notes concept is one of the most family satisfying items I have seen. Having been widowed 20 years ago...I would have loved a LOV Note piece for my husband. I went to the cemetery everyday until I moved away. I think a LOV Note could have been the answer for me, personally." Linda Haddon |
