Mike Fryer. Memorial Tree Planting. A great way to remember a friend, who I'm sure would have approved. A Sweet Chestnut Tree Planted at Keele University. 17 July 2011. We also planted daffodils around the base of the tree, the children particularly enjoyed doing this. Words were said about the tree and the area it's planted in, about Mike, his life, his family and his friends and his Mum told us some tales of when he was a boy. The rain did not stop, but I thought that kind of fitted the occasion, and the tree has been well watered in. It would be good to come back this way again when the daffodils are growing.
