Brattleboro Area Hospice offers Annual Memorial Planting Service

The 25th annual Memorial Planting Service sponsored by Brattleboro Area Hospice will be held Tuesday, June 4, at 5:00 pm at the Brattleboro Area Hospice Memorial Garden, Living Memorial Park, Guilford Street in Brattleboro.

Please join us as we gather to plant flowers, create memorial messages on stones to be placed in the garden or taken home, read names of those who have died in the past year, and listen to beautiful music, all to honor and remember loved ones who have died. Everyone is invited, so encourage family members and friends to come with you. This service can be an especially meaningful experience for children. Flowers and materials for memorial stones will be provided.

If you would like a loved one's name added to the list to be read aloud, please call the office at 802-257-0775 or email it to info@brattleborohospice.org. We will not be serving refreshments; please bring water if needed. A few chairs will be available, but bring one if needed.

The service will be held even if there's light rain. (The rain date if there is heavy rain will be Tuesday, June 11, at 5pm.) If in doubt about whether the service is taking place on June 4 because of rain, call (802) 257-0775 after 2:00 pm on that day. For further information about the service, please call (802) 257-0775 ext. 104.
