FARMINGTON — The Franklin Memorial Hospital Auxiliary once again has a Remembrance Tree with tree decorations that can be purchased “in memory of” or “in honor of” one or more individuals for $5.

The tree in the hospital lobby shows the names of the dedications, as well as the donors who made the gift. Proceeds benefit the Franklin Memorial Hospital Auxiliary.

On Dec. 3, the dedication and lighting ceremony of the Remembrance Tree took place along with caroling and music by Sammie Angel. “The ceremony is an opportunity to remember loved ones who have passed on and to honor those special people in our lives who are still with us,” said Auxiliary President Dawn Girardin.

To order a decoration, send the name of the person it is to be “in memory of” or “in honor of” to: Jean Rand, 725 Orchard Drive, Wilton, ME 04294 or Mary Harris, 67 Cape Cod Hill Road, New Sharon, ME 04955. Enclose a check payable to the FMH Auxiliary for the total decorations purchased. Each is $5.

Forms to order decorations are also available in the hospital’s gift shop, located near the main entrance.

For additional information call Rand at 645-4823 or Harris at 778-2366.
