Looking for suggestions...
\
As the number of individuals being remembered at our semi-annual rememberance gatheirng has increased, our team is rethinking how we present the candle lighting ritual. The number attending is also increasing as well.
\
In the past, we have always had plenty of candles on the table for family members and staff to light as many candles as they would like in memory of those being remembered.
\
Years ago I attended a service where the hopsice had the names of the individuals being remembered on the candle and the family would come forward and one person would like that particular candle. If your hospice does this, can you share how you present this to those in attendance.
\
In the past, the glass votive with a dragonfly charm along with a quoate has been their gift of remembrance from us to them.
\
Your ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
