KAMLOOPS — As people in Kamloops get into the holiday spirit shoppers are encouraged to “Celebrate A Life” on their way through Northills Mall.
The annual event raises money for the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice Home. People are encouraged to donate what they can, then honour loved ones they’ve lost by decorating a memory tree.
“They’re just really simple little grey cards, and they can put their person’s name on it,” said Mary Rea with the Kamloops Hospice Association. “They can write anything they want. Then they come to the tree and they take a white light bulb and they take it our and put a red light bulb in, the red representing that they’re remembering their loved ones.”
