Hospice of Humboldt’s annual observance celebrating loved ones, the Light Up a Life Remembrance Ceremony, will not be held in person this year due to Covid-19 restrictions. Instead, the warm community tradition will be televised on Access Humboldt’s Channel 11 on Wednesday, Dec. 2 at 5 p.m. (as well as available for viewing through Hospice of Humboldt’s website and Facebook and YouTube pages).
The 2020 virtual Light Up a Life Remembrance Ceremony will still incorporate all the feel-good elements of past ceremonies when families and friends could gather togther, including reflections from Hospice speakers as well as music from Elizabeth Smith, Mary Isis, the Threshold Choir, and by Hospice Chaplain Taylor Hagbo. Submitted names of loved ones will be also displayed as part of the candle lighting and blessing.
Community members are invited to celebrate a loved one with a personalized brick on the Heart of Hospice Path or by making a donation in their name.
For more on that or for more information about the Light Up a Life ceremony, call 445-8443 or visit www.hospiceofhumboldt.org.
