(ABC 6 NEWS) -- Dozens of people gathered together at Olmsted Medical Center this week, to pay tribute to the loved ones they've lost.

This is the 10th-annual Honor Planting Service at the "Still Missed" Garden at the Hospital site.

The idea is for family members to pay tribute to patients who lost their lives.

Today's service included a poetry reading, a balloon release, and some musical tributes.

"It's a time for them to come out and remember the ones they lost.  We offer them to bring a flower and plant it in the garden as a remembrance of those that they lost here," said Emily Lorenz, a Social Worker for OMC.

Family members had the option of either planting it themselves, or letting staff members plant it for them.

Officials there say, it's therapeutic for those family members to visit the plant as part of their mourning process.

From the nursery, to the city, to the woodpile, that's the theme behind this year's arborist workshop in Rochester.

The event brought out dozens of arborists, one even came from Florida to speak.

The theme this year was "A Tree's Life", and event organizers say the 11-hour workshop covers every aspect of it.

"So, it's actually looking at the tree from the seed in the nursery, through its establishment, through different containers, and different kinds of things all the way through very mature trees, and how can we prune a master tree to extend its life and to prevent decay and things like that. So it's the whole gamut," said Event Coordinator Jay Maier.

Maier says the program is a great benefit to homeowners too, because the lessons learned today, could be put to use in your yard.
