It seemed to start the Christmas Season for us and for many others. My husband passed away in 1989 at the age of 47. This little commercial always makes me feel closer to him again for a little while each Christmas. I had to move away from Pittsburgh in 2009 and was so happy to find the Little Tree on the internet. This has allowed me to see it year after year all the way on the other side of the Country and bring me home again for a little while with all the happy memories.JoAnn M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2533378430617036786.post-68546587046990225112012-11-30T13:50:14.671-05:002012-11-30T13:50:14.671-05:00My sister and I look forward to this commerical e...My sister and I look forward to this commerical every Christmas season. Infact, it doesn't seem like the Christmas season even begins until we see this commercial. We have loved it ever since we were kids and it still amazingly brings back so many joyful, Christmas childhood memories to us each year. My sister or myself will call each other just to let the other one know that the commercial's on and to keep an eye out for it. We absolutely love it! I had my first child this year and will pass this wonderful tradition down to him each year when he get's a little older.
