Tree Hill Nature Center is located across the street from the cemetery where Mom will rest with Dad. Our Mom and Dad met at Burnett Woods Nature Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, a natural museum and educational center with a similar size and scope as Tree Hill. As they rest, they will now be able to "watch" the school kids visiting the Tree Hill Nature Center.
