RICHLAND CENTER, WIS. (WRCO / WRCE) The Richland Hospital Foundation, together with Partners of The Richland Hospital and Clinics, hosted its first tree lighting celebration aptly called “Lights of Reflection” Thursday. The well-lit tree was adorned with red, white, and blue strands representing donations that have poured in from people honoring, thanking, and memorializing friends, family, and groups who are important in their lives. White lights honor the memory of someone special, red lights represent a living tribute, and blue lights pay tribute to health care heroes and active military service members. During the ceremony, Mark Jelinek, Foundation Board Member, read the names of those honored.
The lit tree will remain in the TRHC lobby through the holidays. Donations will be accepted for Lights of Reflection through December 20. Donate online at Light the Season with Love, Honor, and Hope | Richland Hospital or call Angie Coenen at 608-647-6321, extension 2285.
