Summary

Description
English: The Legerwood Carved Memorial Trees in Tasmania stand as a unique tribute, where 25 trees, originally planted for fallen soldiers in World War I, have been transformed into intricate sculptures by chainsaw artist Eddie Freeman, preserving the memory of each individual soldier. The tree pictured depicts a tragic love story: Private Robert James Jenkins of the 12th Battalion, born in 1889 in Chancewater, Cornwall, England, died on January 7, 1917, in France. Before his departure from Australia, he proposed to Miss Amy Francis Forsyth, fondly known as "Trippy." Their enduring love story is captured by Trippy's lifelong commitment to keep her engagement ring next to a photo of Private Jenkins until her passing in 1968 at the age of 76, symbolizing their unwavering devotion.
