Last year I saw that the oak was gone. Does anyone know anything about that old tree? ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.

I called the park and the main landscaping man was going to look for the marker. He said that he had been working on landscaping at the park for 11 yrs and didnt recall it,but now he is curious. He said that the tornado took trees mostly on the north side, which is opposite the entrance on West End Avenue. If he calls back with any info, I will let everyone know.
