If you are a regular visitor to either Bristol's Lasting Tribute website, or the version that covers Gloucestershire, you will know that they have both become trusted places for people to share their memories, pictures and condolences and celebrate the lives of those they have loved and admired.

We see many people adding tributes for their grandparents which talk about happy childhood memories and sometimes include lovely pictures like the ones in this article.

Anyone who pays for a bereavement or 'in memoriam' notice to appear in one of our partner newspapers - including the Evening Post, the Citizen and the Gloucestershire Echo - will also have it added to Lasting Tribute so that friends and family across the world can add memories and pictures.

Lasting Tribute also offers a range of services and gifts to help you keep those memories alive - and one is a dedicate-a-tree service in partnership with The Tree Appeal.

In honour of Grandparents Day - which happens on Sunday (Oct 4) - we are offering anyone the chance to have a tree dedicated at half-price, £9.99 instead of £19.99.

To find out more about the service, and to order a tree, go to the Lasting Tribute online shop and click on the Grandparents day image. BUT this offer is ONLY AVAILABLE online until Monday October 12.

Grandparents Day began in America in the 1970s but the charity Age Concern brought it over to the UK in 1990 to honour these special people in our lives.

Lasting Tribute includes more than 1.2 million tributes - and 3,500 new ones are added each week - and has a number of special sections such as ones that remember every British soldier killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
