The Season for Love Lites Begins

(Honesdale, December 04, 2024)…The warmth and peace of the moment triumphed over the cold as loved ones were honored and memorialized as the trees outside Wayne Memorial Hospital were lit this week. The annual Love Lites ceremony Monday evening December 2nd was hosted by the Wayne Memorial Hospital Auxiliary with many in attendance.  The event included a blessing by Pastor Mary Bryant of Cold Spring Chapel, Pleasant Mount, remarks from hospital CEO Jim Pettinato and holiday music presentations by the Honesdale High School Chorus and Marching Band. Love Lites was launched in 1991 as a fundraiser and a way to bring the community together during the holiday season. A “Memory Book” listing all the names honored with lights can be found in the hospital lobby.
