2025 Annual Tree Lighting Ceremony
We invite you to join us for our Jefferson Memorial’s Annual Tree Lighting to hang ornaments in memory of your loved one. Bring the whole family and enjoy the sights and sounds of Christmas.
Please join us on Saturday, December 6, 2025, from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.The event will be held indoors at the Jefferson Mausoleum, located directly across the mall from the Administration Building.
Families are invited to hang a personalized tree ornament dedicated to their loved one on our remembrance tree. We encourage families to bring their own ornament which may showcase the unique life of their loved one. If you choose not to bring your own ornament, we will have decorations on hand to place on the tree for all who attend.
There will be a community tree to decorate, light holiday refreshments, as well as holiday-themed music by the Pleasant Hills Middle School Choir. We look forward to gathering together to celebrate your loved one’s life.
On behalf of Jefferson Memorial Cemetery, Funeral Home, Crematory & Arboretum, and the Neel Family, we wish you a safe and happy holidays and upcoming New Year.
Please note: Ornaments will be kept on the tree until January 20, 2026. If you would like to keep your ornament, please remove it from the tree by this date. You are welcome to collect it on your own time. While we encourage any ornaments brought to be a personalized token of your loved one, we do not suggest any item of value, either personal or monetary value, to be utilized. You will be able to come and pick up your ornament once the tree is taken down in our cemetery office building, otherwise, all decorations will be removed.
