Opportunities to Honor and Remember

When loved ones pass away, they are no longer with us physically, but they are never really gone.

Part of the joy in knowing that person is the ability to keep them alive in memory and spirit.

JFCS would like to help celebrate their memory with you.

For Senior Center participants donating more than $100, the Center provides an opportunity to create a

memorial in the individual’s name. These names will be placed on a memorial plaque to be displayed

within the Center.

Participants can also choose to honor someone in recognition of a special occasion.

If you, or someone you know, are interested, please see Jennifer at the JFCS Center for Senior Enrich-

ment, for more information. 602.943.2198
