Memorial Garden<br />

The end of the year is a time to<br />

reflect <strong>on</strong> those we have loved and<br />

lost. The Memorial Garden began<br />

in the hearts of <str<strong>on</strong>g>Celebrati<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> residents<br />

looking for a way to h<strong>on</strong>or and<br />

remember the lives of others who<br />

have passed away.<br />

The visi<strong>on</strong> of the Memorial Garden is to enable reflecti<strong>on</strong> <strong>on</strong><br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>Celebrati<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g>’s c<strong>on</strong>cern for family, creative beauty, harm<strong>on</strong>y and<br />

reverence for life. This has been carried out by the use of beautiful<br />

landscaping, walking paths and private rest areas inviting reflecti<strong>on</strong>.<br />

Even the circular design evokes thoughts of the circle of life.<br />

Shares Bounty<br />

with Westside K-8<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>Celebrati<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> K-8 middle school students cleaned, pressed and folded<br />

hundreds of items of uniform clothing in Home Ec<strong>on</strong>omics.<br />

<str<strong>on</strong>g>Celebrati<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> parents have embraced the uniform recycling program<br />

and the amount of clothing was more than the Spirit Closet could use.<br />

Kathleen Sipio thought what better way to share the bounty than to<br />

help Westside K-8 and sent 28 boxes of clean clothing to the school.<br />
