SANDWICH — In honor of the families it has assisted throughout the year, Beverage Family Funeral Home has established a memorial Christmas tree.

The tree can be seen from the Railroad Street side of the funeral home in the large picture window. The tree will be lit from now until the New Year in honor of loved ones.

The Christmas tree has gold and red ornaments with the names of the deceased and their date of death.

“We are remembering our families and would like to offer those of you who have had loved ones who have passed away to be memorialized on our tree, regardless if we assisted in their service or not,” funeral director Jeff Beverage said.

Call the funeral home at 815-786-6715 with names of the deceased and their date of death to have their ornament hung on the tree.
