Healing Hearts Memorial Rock Garden "Planting"

Children from  four-to 18-years-old, who are participating in the Healing Hearts program will have an opportunity to "plant" their personalized hand-painted rocks in the United Hospice of Rockland Children's Memorial Rock Garden. During the ceremony, the children will also have a chance to talk about and memorialize their loved ones.  Their rocks will permanently adorn the rock garden.

There will be entertainment and refreshments. Families who are participating in the Healing Hearts program and the community  are invited. 

Healing Hearts, a family bereavement program of United Hospice of Rockland (UHR), provides the time and continuity necessary to enable children, teens, and adults to progress at their own pace through grieving and healing.  Designed for children and teens, ages 4 to 18, who have lost a loved one, groups are organized according to the ages of the children and their developmental levels.
