Susan...first off, thanks for the thread help...I tried typing in those words but set the time span for 1 year.

This is an annual commemorative service held outide in the local park. Lights,sponsored by those honoring someone who has died, are strung on a huge pine and then, at the service the tree is lit. To be honest, I've never been to one, but have been volunteering this past year, thru Hospice, singing at convalescent homes. And I suppose the music director, knowing my husband died last year, thought I might be interested in participating on more than one count.

Thanks again for thread direction...Nancy
