As part of the "Branch Out, West Peoria" campaign, Sharon Kennedy purchased a tree to plant in the center of the cul-de-sac on Iris Ct. in memory of Blanche Fuson. Blanche, who had lived on Iris Ct. for many years, passed away prior to the Branch Out program. She and her late husband Harold were great admirers of the beautiful, old trees in the community, so their friends on the street thought it was a fitting tribute to their love of nature to plant a tree in Blanche's memory. The tree, which has grown and prospered, has brought joy to the residents on Iris Ct. Additional pictures of this tree can be viewed on the "Branch Out West Peoria" photo gallery.
