Two trees for Amanda: How West Chicago community rallied around mom's loss

June 22, 2019

Nearly three weeks ago, Lee Ann Meiborg shed tears of sadness and anger as she sat in her car outside West Chicago High School, where a tree planted 15 years ago as a memorial to her late daughter, Amanda, had been removed without warning, explanation or ceremony. Friday, she wept again, but these tears were of gratitude for a community that has rallied to make it possible for Meiborg to have not just one tree to honor Amanda's memory, but two -- one at the Morton Arboretum in Lisle, the other in West Chicago's Reed-Keppler Park.
