Who This Tree Is For

  • It’s for the grandmother who raised you.
  • The friend who made you laugh.
  • The parent who shaped who you became.
  • The sibling taken too soon.
  • The spouse you still reach for in the morning.
  • It’s for recent losses and old grief that resurfaces during the holidays.
  • It’s for Sunset families and for families we’ve never met.


If someone mattered to you, they have a place on this tree.

Make It Your Own

Visit once or multiple times – whatever feels right for you and your family.

Bring your loved ones – children, parents, friends. Create ornaments together and share stories.

Take photos – capture the moment with the tree and your ornament. Share on social media or keep it close to your heart.

Reflect and remember – take your time in a peaceful, welcoming space.

A Gift to Our Community

Grief doesn’t pause for the holidays—and sometimes the season makes loss feel heavier. We created the Community Remembrance Tree to give our community a tangible way to include the people they miss in their celebrations.

Stop by during our business hours now through December 31. Our staff will provide everything you need to create a beautiful tribute to someone you love.

No RSVP needed. No explanation required. Just come when it feels right.
