MEDICAL CENTER TO HOST ANNUAL “WALK TO REMEMBER”
Hackensack University Medical Center will host its annual “Walk to Remember” on Sunday, October 20 from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. A special service to honor the memories of the babies who died via miscarriage, ectopic pregnancy, stillbirth, or newborn death is planned and will include a walk around the medical campus. Those attending will gather in The Palm Court in Hackensack University Medical Plaza, located at 20 Prospect Avenue in Hackensack.
Remembrances will be shared; any expressions of love including poems, songs, and readings are welcome. Families who have experienced a loss will receive a fabric square to decorate in memory of their loved one, along with their invitation. The squares will be collected and displayed on a banner to be carried during the “Walk to Remember.”
Those wishing to receive an invitation may call the Pastoral Care Department at (201) 996-2345. Complimentary parking will be provided in the main parking garage. Those wishing to make a donation in memory of a loved one may contribute to The Perinatal Bereavement Fund through The Hackensack University Medical Center Foundation at (201) 996-3720.
