Thanks to Ruth Ayres at DiscoverPlayBuild, for this Saturday tradition of sharing our celebrations. It's special to read all the posts.
On Thursday, my daughter, son-in-law and I attended a Service of Remembrance given by Vitas, the hospice group who cared for my husband until he died. At the end of the year, they hold this ceremony with a "reading of the names", in their words, "to remember and honor those who have died and gone before us." It was bitter cold and only three families were able to come, but others were honored. We participated in a few readings, listened to some lovely and reassuring words from one of the chaplains, and the names were read.
