About us

Cemeteries, crematoriums, funeral directors, hospices, hospitals, charities, sports and social organisations have been enthusing about our memorial trees since the launch of this sustainable and maintenance free design in early 2016.

Expanding, improving and innovating on your product line that not only appeals to your customers (an engraved memorial leaf with the name of their loved ones on a beautiful memorial) but also as a work of art that is welcoming, striking and enriches both the landscape and your premises.

Our company

The concept of a modern memorial originated from Anita van Bokhorst and José Visser. From their idea, José designed the memorial tree, shortly before her sudden death in 2016.

Lovingly, Anita and José’s husband Diederik Everts continue the (Dutch) company Gedenk-Bomen. There are now many dozens of memorial trees in the Netherlands and several other European countries. All countries have dedicated team members to work with you.

Marko Dakin is our representative for the UK and Ireland. You can reach him directly by telephone or email. Please use the contact details on the Contact page.

Our product line

Memorial trees are available in three standard sizes: 320 cm, 220 cm, and 120 cm. Even smaller memorial trees of 60 cm or 80 cm (without the capacity for memorial leaves) have also been specially developed as individual grave headstones, markers and memorials. The latest addition to our product line is a 220 cm flat, wall mounted memorial tree.

Ordering memorial leaves

Our customers have access to a private dedicated webshop for easy online ordering of bespoke memorial leaves for their memorial tree(s).
