Remembering loved ones is one of the most healing parts of the journey through grief and loss. Alive Hospice is holding a live butterfly release in Murfreesboro that will help members of the community celebrate the lives of dear loved ones on Saturday, May 28.
This Friday, May 13 is the last day to place orders for butterflies for the May 28 event. Order online at AliveHospice.org/butterfly or by calling 615-346-8326.
This event, which has become an Alive Hospice tradition in Murfreesboro, will be begin at 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 28 at Alive Hospice’s Murfreesboro Office (in the garden patio area), located at 1639 Medical Center Parkway. It is open to anyone in the community who has lost a loved one. Families are encouraged to attend together at this child-friendly remembrance gathering.
The morning will include refreshments, inspirational readings and the opportunity for families and individuals to release butterflies together.
Butterflies may be ordered for $30. Funds raised through this event will go toward the building of The Residence at Alive Hospice — Murfreesboro, which is slated to open in early 2017. It will be the first facility of its kind in Murfreesboro and will add a much-needed layer of care and support for Rutherford and surrounding counties. The facility will expand Alive Hospice’s services, which presently include home-based hospice care as well as grief support services at its Medical Center Parkway office.
