Memorial Service
Menno Place holds an annual Memorial Service for those who have passed away in the previous year. This is held in conjunction with the Butterfly Release for those who wish to remember a loved one through the releasing of a butterfly. The Memorial Service takes place at 2pm in the Hospital Chapel just prior to the Butterfly Release. The primary contacts of all those who’ve passed away between June 1, 2022 and May 31, 2023 will receive an invitation to attend the memorial. Staff are invited to attend, or if you’d like to view the livestream, you may do so here at the time of the event.
