Inscription.

Charlie Elliott's reverence for God's creations was expressed through a life dedicated to conserving the great outdoors and to educating others about preserving nature's gifts for the enjoyment of future generations.

At sunrise on June 2, 2000, as he had requested, Elliott's ashes were committed to the earth at this site and this white oak was planted to remind all those who come here that they will find strength and peace in the love of nature.
