About the event
On December 14th, we invite families, friends, and our community to gather at the One Bright Star Memorial for a gentle, meaningful evening of remembrance.
At 6:30pm, the path will be illuminated with luminaries, each light honoring a precious child taken from us far too soon. These lights help us reflect, remember, and hold space for love that never fades.
We are deeply grateful to the Knights of Columbus for donating a beautiful tree that will stand at the memorial throughout the season.
Families are welcome to add an ornament in honor of their child, creating a shared symbol of connection, memory, and hope.
This night is for quiet reflection, heartfelt remembrance, and the comfort of being together. All are welcome.
