Lights of Remembrance

Transitions GriefCare presents Lights of Remembrance, an opportunity to honor our loved ones and acknowledge our strength as a community of grievers.

On Tuesday, January 12 and Wednesday, January 13 from 5:30–7:30pm, we will light up our campus for a self-guided luminary walk. We invite you to select ONE of these dates to attend and celebrate the life of your loved one on a self-guided walk through light, imagery, and quiet reflection. There will be an opportunity to engage in an art project to honor your own grief while quietly supporting each other as a community.
