The holiday season is a time of joy and goodwill. It is also a time for remembering those who have shared our holidays and brought so much happiness to our lives over the years.<\/p>\n

To honor loved ones who have passed away, Tioga Friends of Hospice is once again inviting Tioga County residents to participate in the Memorial Tree of Lights. This annual tradition has been in existence in our community for over 30 years, with an evergreen available for lighting in each village: Apalachin, Barton, Berkshire, Campville, Candor, Lockwood, Newark Valley, Nichols, Owego, Richford, Spencer, Tioga Center, Waverly, and Willseyville.<\/p>\n

For a suggested donation of $10, a memorial can be purchased in honor of a loved one who has passed. The name of your loved one is also printed once in The Owego Pennysaver during the month of December.<\/p>\n
