🕯️ Wave of Light 🕯️

Tonight, at 7pm, we join families, friends and communities around the world in the Wave of Light to remember babies gone too soon.

We invite you to light a candle at 7pm and take a moment to remember the babies who are forever loved, forever missed and forever part of their families' hearts.

As part of our Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month display, we are honoured to remember the precious babies whose names have been shared with us throughout October.

💗 No matter how brief their time, they will never be forgotten. 💙 Their light continues to shine. ❤️ Forever loved, forever remembered.
