Holiday Memory Tree Event

The holidays can be especially painful as we miss celebrating with our loved ones, and we sometimes wish we could say one more thing. This year, you can write those words and hang them on the very first holiday Memory Tree at the West Jordan Cemetery (7925 S 1300 W, West Jordan).

At 5:25 pm on Wednesday, December 2, join the community and keep warm in Pioneer Hall for a Remembrance Ceremony. Here, guests will decorate and write on the ornaments and enjoy hot cocoa and cookies (all supplies will be provided!). At 7:00 pm, guests will then make their way through the Luminaria pathway to the Memory Tree, where the tree will come to life with light. Guests will hang their ornaments and spend time remembering loved ones.

If you can't make the event, decorate an ornament any time during December from the cabinet near the Memory Tree. All the supplies will be available.

The tree and ornaments will remain until the second week of January 2027.
