OUR HOLIDAY REMEMBRANCE CANDLELIGHT SERVICE CONTINUES IN 2020
Arlington Heights Family-Owned Business Eases Season for Those Who Have Lost Loved Ones with Virtual Memorial December 5 at 4 p.m. (Central)
In a year of many cancellations, the easy thing for the owners and management at Glueckert Funeral Home in Arlington Heights would have been to call off the annual candlelight remembrance service in light of coronavirus restrictions.
Grief, however, does not take a holiday even during a pandemic, and the Glueckert staff understands that the funeral home’s annual Holiday Luminary Remembrance Service helps make the yearly “season of joy” a little less painful for those who are grieving.
“This has been a tough year emotionally for people. There’s been nothing but loss,” said Matthew Bennett, the funeral home’s manager. “Hopefully this can be a silver lining.”
The service, normally attended by as many as 400 people will leverage the power of internet livestreaming to welcome an infinite number of people to gather for poems, prayers, short messages from local pastors, and testimonials from families sharing their reflections and memories. Over 70 families have already submitted photos of their loved ones who passed this year for the memorial tribute.
Celebrating our traditions and rites during COVID-19 has been challenging; but Glueckert Funeral Home welcomes all to join together to honor our beloved departed. As in the past, this service is intended to bring comfort to families during the holiday season, always especially difficult when a dear one has departed.
All are invited to view the online service on Saturday, December 5, 2020 at 4 p.m. (Central) as they stay home and stay safe. The streamed video will remain online at GlueckertFuneralHome.com throughout the month of December.
WHAT: 11th Annual Holiday Luminary Remembrance Service
WHEN: Saturday, December 5, 2020, at 4 p.m. (Central)
