Ryan's
Reading Tree
Ryan's Reading Tree, a beautiful life-like oak,
was recently dedicated to the memory of Ryan Hunter Dickerson.
This lasting tribute is the focal point of the Children's Room
of the Modesto Library, creating a magical place for children to
explore the wonders of books and reading. An avid reader, Ryan
loved the library. He died suddenly in the summer of 2007, at
the age of 18. The Dickerson Family and the Library Foundation
sincerely thank the hundreds of donors who helped make this tree
a reality. For a complete list of donors, please visit www.ryanstree.com |
