Join Us As We Light Their Candles Together

Your tribute continues with a special evening of remembrance.

Don't forget, near the end of November, families and friends are invited to gather with us at both the Dr. Jay Weil Center for Hospice Care and the Rucki Hospice Care Center for our Light A Candle remembrance ceremony.

Come together with others in our community to light a candle, say their name and remember the people whose light we continue to carry.
