Hospital Auxiliary plans 'Tree of Lights'

This is the time of year for being thankful, for remembering, and taking part in holiday traditions. It is also a time for honoring and remembering our loved ones.

Join the Newark-Wayne Auxiliary for the annual Tree of Lights ceremony in memory and honor of loved ones on Monday, December 1 at 7:30 p.m. in the hospital main lobby.

Each light on the holiday tree, as well as the tree in the DeMay Living Center, will represent a gift in honor or memory of someone.

Send the name of the person to be honored or remembered, along with the name and address of the person to receive the acknowledgment card to:

Tree of Lights, Newark-Wayne Community Hospital Auxiliary, Newark-Wayne Community Hospital, PO Box 111, Newark, NY 14513. Please be sure to include a donation for each individual being honored - $10 at gold level or $5 at silver level. Checks may be made payable to NWCH Auxiliary.

Donations will be accepted throughout the holiday season and will be listed in the Book of Remembrance, located in the Hospital Chapel.

The proceeds will be used by the Auxiliary to support the programs and services of Newark-Wayne Community Hospital and of DeMay Living Center. The Newark-Wayne Community Hospital Auxiliary's members work to support the hospital through fund-raising projects, and as advocates and volunteers for the hospital.

This year the Tree of Lights event is being chaired by Auxilians Jan Lefebvre, Becky Short, Carole Nary and Helen Ceravolo. For information, call 332.2273.
