For 41 years, Hospice SLO County’s Light Up A Life season has offered a special ceremony in Mission Plaza for the remembrance of loved ones who are no longer present but certainly not forgotten. The lantern symbolizes light as we are guided through life’s darker times and illumination of love and remembrance.

The ceremony will include music, an inspirational message, poetry, the reading of names, and the lighting of candles. You are invited to make a $25 donation and receive a lantern in memory of a loved one. Your loved one’s name will be read at the Light up a Life ceremony and entered in the Hospice SLO County Memorial Book.

With your donation, your Light up a Life lantern ornament will be mailed to you to keep or to send to the family of the person you are remembering. Scholarships are available if the donation is a hardship. Please call our office for information.
