In Lancaster County, 5 trees mark 5 lost lives

January 15, 2015

Nickel Mines, Pennsylvania - The winter solstice is past and each cold but lengthening day brings closer the time when white flowers will blossom on five young trees standing in a shallow and tragic valley.

Five young Amish girls - named Anna, Lena, Marian, Mary and Naomi - were murdered there in 2006.

Some locals are unaware of the trees' significance. Others welcome the sight of them maturing, season by season.
