Westchester Hills Golf Club in White Plains was filled with community members and business leaders who came together to celebrate life and the holiday season during Hospice of Westchester’s (HOW) 22nd annual “Tree of Life” reception Nov. 30.
Guests who purchased a gold star in memory or in honor of a loved one placed the personalized stars on the Tree of Life at the event.
“Being together with friends and loved ones is an important part of the holiday season, and we were thrilled to be able to host our Tree of Life reception in person for the first time in three years,” said Mary K. Spengler, MS, RN, LNHA, CEO of HOW. “The event has always served as a bright light during the holidays, which can be a difficult time of year for those who have lost a loved one or who have a family member that has been diagnosed with a life-limiting illness. It meant so much to all of us at HOW to come together in person once again.”
The Grand Sponsors of the event were Beecher Flooks Funeral Home Inc., Co-Communications Inc., Cuddy & Feder LLP, Michele Fraser Geller, Grassy Sprain Pharmacy, Next Level Private LLC, PKF O’Connor Davies LLP, The Hildegarde D. Becher Foundation Inc. and Valley Bank. Sponsors included Graphic Management Partners, Polchinski Memorials Inc., Ross Mailing Services Inc., The Kensico Cemetery and Westchester Hills Golf Club.
