Milford Care Centre, located in Castetroy
MILFORD Care Centre is honouring the memory of those who have passed away while under their care with a Service of Remembrance and Thanksgiving next week.
The service will take place at Our Lady Help of Christians Church, Castletroy, on Sunday, June 15, at 3pm. Milford Care Centre warmly welcome all members of the community, regardless of faith, to join us in commemorating their lives.
In times of loss, we grapple with a lot of emotions. Memories persist, while grief and sadness linger, shaping our lives with the weight of the past and the present. The local hospice is inviting families to bring along a stone either from their home, or a place that holds a special significance to them and their loved one.

During the service a representative from each family will have an opportunity to place the stone on the altar. Alternatively, you may wish to do this after the service finishes. These stones will be placed beneath the altar at Christmas and again at the foot of the Easter cross next year at Milford. Subsequently, they will be relocated around Milford Care Centre's ‘Light up a Memory Tree.’
