Thomas Lee Mikkelson

Our dear brother, Tom, passed away last year in New Mexico.

Tom grew up in Las Vegas and lived here over 30 years. He camped and fished and adventured all over Nevada, Utah, and several other states. He taught his sisters, kids, grandkids, step kids, nieces and nephews how to bait a hook and clean and cook a fish. Tom also loved cooking for family and friends and sharing stories and laughs.

We will greatly miss him around the campfire and our family trips will never be the same without him.

He left behind his loving wife Emma, his mother and sisters, and many family members who love and miss him dearly. He also left his faithful pooch Miel, who still looks for him at the front door.

Rest in peace brother.

Plant a tree: How does it work

When your purchase is complete, a post will be made on the tribute wall of the deceased signifying the planting of a memorial tree.

An official certificate recognizing your purchase will be included with your email receipt. You can then forward the email to the family or print it and give it to them personally.

After an order is placed, our forestry partners will plant the tree in the area of greatest need (nearest the funeral home), according to the planting schedule for the year.

Due to seasonal conditions, the tree planting takes place during the spring and summer.

Tree Planting Timeline

Orders placed in:

January - May

Planting will take place in Spring or Summer of the same year.

June - December

Planting will take place in Spring of the following year.
