March 5, 1987—"Woodland
Planted in Israel in Memory of Louise Schiff," San Diego Jewish Times, p.36:
A woodland of 2,000 trees will be planted in Israel in memory of Louise Joy
Schiff by her mother, Rose Schiff, and her family. The trees will be located in
the Challenger Forest, a project established by the Jewish National Fund in the
American Independence Park near Jerusalem. this forest was established in memory
of seven Challenger astronauts. Mrs. Schiff and her family selected the
Challenger Forest because Louise died during the same week as the Challenger
tragedy. On Jan. 18 there was an unveiling of Louise's stone. Lt.
Col. Yossi Urman of Jerusalem attended on behalf of the Jewish National
Fund. He made a formal presentation of the Woodland plaque to Mrs. Schiff
and her family. Urman spoke about the many young lives Israel has lost and
the sympathy he felt for Louise's untimely death. He noted the beautiful
symbolism of the trees planted in Israel as a memorial to Louise Joy Schiff, who
loved plants nd nature and who was strongly committed to the building of a
better, more peaceful world.
