All are welcome to attend this year’s event, which will be held
at Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital on Tuesday, December 2 at 5:30
p.m.
Participants may gather inside the ALMH lobby, and then proceed to
the hospital’s east-side patio. Once outside, they will light a
candle, sing along with cherished Christmas tunes, and, if they
wish, share the names of those they honored or memorialized. A
complimentary soup and sandwich dinner will follow in the adjacent
Woods Cafe.
Dr. Paul Boatman will lead the service. Mrs. Jewel Strauss is this
year’s honorary chairperson.
Each Light Up A Life tribute directly benefits patient care in Logan
County. The suggested donation of $10 per name may also be
designated to purchase medical equipment at ALMH, support needs of
Logan and Mason County patients served by Memorial Home Services
Hospice Care, fund scholarships for future ALMH healthcare
providers, or the Moving Forward Weight Loss Program so that more
community members can participate for a very reasonable fee.
There is still time to submit tributes. However, names must be
received by the Abraham Lincoln Healthcare Foundation at the close
of business on Friday, December 5 to be included in published
listings. Forms are available at ALMH, and can be downloaded from
ALMH.org and mailed to Light Up A Life, 200 Stahlhut Drive in
Lincoln.
