The Tree event is nondenominational and serves as a way for bereaved families to remember their loved ones. The Tree ceremony is a VNHC signature event and raises over $80,000 for end-of-life care.
The service includes an inspirational message from VNHC Pastoral Care Coordinator Katherine Silvan and music from the heart from members of the Talmadge Hill Church Choir in New Canaan, under the direction of Rob Silvan. Katie Critelli, daughter of Pitney Bowes Executive Michael Critelli, will perform solos on her harp.
