ANNUAL CANDELIGHT VIGIL
IN MEMORY OF OUR CHILDREN
DECEMBER 6, 7:00 PM
"A place of reflection and remembrance for all who have lost a child. This memorial garden is located on a quiet hill. Memorial bricks makeup the "Path of Lost Dreams' which help families and other visitors remember and pay tribute to those children whose parents and families must go on without them." ~ The City of Washington, Parks
"About 20 new bricks will be dedicated at the fourth annual memorial candlelight vigil at the Angel of Hope Memorial Garden in Washington.
"The event will be held at the garden Sunday, Dec. 6, at 7 p.m. During the ceremony, the names on new bricks purchased in 2015 will be read aloud.
'“It’s a nice venue to come to help families, friends and loved ones to cope through the holiday,” said Robin Peirick, Angel of Hope committee member.
"The garden is designed to be a quiet place for parents and others to remember their loved ones who have passed away. It is located in a secluded area in the Bernie Hillermann Park, located south of the All-Abilities Park." ~ The Missourian, By Karen Butterfield, Missourian Staff Writer Nov 21, 2015
