Pathways of Hope at the Generations of Life Center, a service of Ohio’s Hospice of Miami County, will hold a memorial butterfly release on Sunday, Sept. 8, at 2:30 pm, at Ohio Living Dorothy Love in the Amos Community Center (3003 W. Cisco Rd., Sidney, Ohio 45365).

The event is a way to remember and honor special people who have touched our lives and who live on in our memories. At the conclusion of the service, participants will release live butterflies in memory of their loved ones. 

“This is a beautiful way to remember and honor family members and friends who have touched our lives,” said Heather Bolton, executive director of Ohio’s Hospice of Miami County. “If you have lost someone close to you, we encourage you to participate in this memorial service.”

Registration is required, and there is a donation of $10 for each butterfly. If participants are not able to attend, butterflies will be released on their behalf. 

The deadline to register for the event is Friday, Aug. 30. To register, contact Pathways of Hope at Generations of Life Center at 937.573.2108.
