Rosehaven memorial evening

ON October 26 2024 it was a beautiful Saturday night and our community came together to support each other in a time of shared grief, as we celebrated the lives that have touched our Rosehaven families with our annual memorial evening.

A rock ceremony was held at our rose garden, to pay respect to the loved ones that have passed over in the last twelve months.

This was followed by an evening meal seated along a table decorated with beautiful red Waratah’s thoughtfully placed.

There was lots of sharing and connection through conversation over the table as the dinner progressed to the ceremony.

A memorial table was beautifully decorated with photos and candles to show love and respect to our loved ones that are no longer with us.

We cannot thank our amazing team of volunteers enough from salads, set up, pack up, bar and BBQ, flowers, candles, garden preparation as the care and compassion could be felt in every detail.

Thank you to Mary Anne Eagan for the beautiful service and Suzanne and Steven for the ‘emotionally moving’ live acoustic music.

We give a heartfelt thank you to all in our community who allow the team at Rosehaven the privilege of working with their families through some of what can only be described as the most difficult moments in life.
