LAKEPORT, Calif. – Hospice Services of Lake County will host a special remembrance ceremony on Saturday, Nov. 7, followed by the dedication of a memory garden.

The celebration will take place at Hospice Services of Lake County’s property at 1862 Parallel Drive in Lakeport at 6:30 p.m.

This year’s annual “Light Up A Life” candle lighting ceremony features several highly talented, local musicians. 

Accomplished harpist, Linda Brown, will engage the audience through the clear, clean sounds of her restful music. 

Anna and Briana Mix will play guitars and sing a selection of meaningful songs; Luke and Karen Steely will perform a signature duet on flute, and Hospice’s own versatile and committed board member, David Neft, will delight the audience with his remarkable talent on keyboards.

“Light Up A Life” is a candle lighting ceremony of remembrance that celebrates the memories of family, friends and loved ones who have passed. 

An original poem written and spoken by local author, Bill Gottlieb, will be part of the brief program, concluding with the lighting of candles. 

Keepsake candles will be available at the event for a suggested donation of $10 or may be pre-ordered by calling 707-263-6270, Extension 111. 

The dedication of the new memory garden will take place immediately following the “Light Up A Life” ceremony. 

This garden was generously funded by the Rotary Club of Lakeport as a place of peace and serenity for people to walk or sit and remember their loved ones. There is no charge to attend.
