FORT WAYNE, IN - The public is invited to attend a special gathering commemorating the loss of loved ones at the annual Lutheran Hospital Remembrance Tree event on Saturday, December 7 from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Lutheran Hospital offers a yearly gathering in remembrance of all who have passed within Lutheran Health Network facilities. Come share stories with others who are experiencing similar feelings.

Materials will be available to design and assemble a remembrance ornament to be placed on trees to be viewed in the hospital lobby throughout the season. Special ornaments will be available for fallen heroes, organ donors, children and infants. Participants can return and pick up their ornament between December 13-23.

This event will include holiday music, refreshments, memory-making packets for children to complete at home, and more. Chaplains and Lutheran Hospital’s Bereavement Committee will be available for support throughout the event. There will be a reading of loved ones' names at 12 p.m.
