This simple yet personal event recalls and remembers important people in our lives celebrating generations of people who helped forge a path of who we are today.
It is a good idea to arrive early to place pictures and decorate lanterns provided by the church. After the ceremony, which takes approximately 30 minutes, a wine and cheese reception will follow.
