Each year Hospice Orillia hosts its annual Candles of Remembrance Ceremony where community members gather to honour those who are no longer with us.

The 2025 Candles of Remembrance Ceremony will take place on Thursday, November 27th, 2025 at Creative Nomad Studios. This year in addition to our gathering in person, we will also be providing the community with the opportunity to add their loved ones’ photo and a message on our memorial wall (you do not need to be attending the ceremony in person to utilize our Memorial Wall). Please note the 2025 memorial wall will begin on November 3rd.

Missing your big bright smile dad, and remembering how appreciative you were of all things beautiful in nature, and how happy you were to have visits. You made the staff at Coleman Care laugh. You were quite the character and will never be forgotten.
