25th Annual Tree of Lights Ceremonies

The Hospice of the East Bay will hold its 25th annual Tree of Lights ceremonies in 14 locations throughout Contra Costa in November and December to celebrate the job of remembrance.

The ceremonies are held to honor or remember beloved friends and family members. Each light symbolizes the beloved friend or family member.

Everyone is invited to participate in the events which include music, poetry, remembrances by family members and friends of Hospice, and the special moment when the tree lights up.
