Virtual Hospice
event is June 4
PUTNAM — Hospice & Palliative Care of Northeastern Connecticut, a program of Day Kimball Healthcare (DKH), will host its annual memorial garden planting ceremony virtually this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The annual remembrance ceremony honoring hospice patients who have passed away in the last year will be broadcast live through Day Kimball Healthcare’s Facebook page at 5:30 p.m. June 4.
The flower-planting ceremony, held at Day Kimball Hospital’s Memorial Rainbow Garden, creates a living tribute in the form of a memorial garden and offers Hospice families and the community a place to grieve, reflect, and remember their loved ones.
“This year, although we may be separated from each other physically, keeping our tradition of honoring our loved ones we have lost brings us closer together in spirit,” said Renee Smith, executive director, Day Kimball Healthcare At Home.
