I -T. •v Tree-Lighting Memorial The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, October 15, 1997 Page 3 The Christmas season is a difficult time for families who have experienced a loss, whether it is recent or in the past. With the holidays comes time to reflect on family and those who arc no longer with us. The tree on Temperance St., by the Bank of Montreal in Bowmanville, will be used this year to create this unique memorial. • The Rotary Club of Bowmanville proposes a "Tree of Mope" that would remain lit through the holiday season from December 5th to January 1st. The tree has been lit with white lights, but this year a light may be purchased by a donation to a local char ity of your choice in memory of a loved one. For each donation one white light will be replaced with a green one. Each individual green light will symbolize the life of a loved one who has passed away. After the closing date for accepting donations for the individual lights, the tree would then have all the green lights added. At a special ceremony ceremony on the evening of December 5th in conjunction with the B.I.A. Christmas Moonlight Magic the tree would be lit and remain lit until January 1st, 1998 thus enabling people to remember their loved ones during the holiday season.
