Great idea! A garden is a lovely way to remember someone - you can sit there and have a little chat when you feel like it. My grandparents have benches with their names on, and I like sitting on them and remembering.

What a beautiful way to acknowledge a wonderful person.
I too look forward to the day we see it finished!
I think that is so special. How did you decide on what went into the garden? Were the flowers and plants favorites of your husband's?

It looks as if it will be a wonderful, peaceful place to sit, or wander along the little path. But what a lot of work you still have ahead of you!
I'm sure it will be worth it, though. A great achievement, and a delightful memorial. :)
