Greetings friends,

This is a reminder about our three upcoming events in Parker, CO and Monson, MA.  All events are free, but we ask that you RSVP:
  • December 6  - Parker CO - Candlelight Remembrance
  • December 16 - Monson MA - Motherland Film
  • December 17 - Parker CO - Motherland Film
The holiday season is upon us and for many parents who are missing their children, it is especially difficult to feel so bombarded with all the things that might have been.  Please remember to give a call or tell your friend that you're thinking about them and remembering their child with them.  Often people hesitate to share for fear they will make the parents sad.  The parents are already sad, it is usually quite uplifting to be told that someone else is thinking of their child.
ANNUAL CANDLELIGHT REMEMBRANCE
Register to Attend Join us on December 6th

Register today
to be included in the RTF Candlelight Remembrance Event being held at our Angel Memorial Plaza in Parker, CO.

This is a free event, but you must register in order to attend.  Registration closes on December 3 and includes your candle, event program, and the hot cocoa reception afterward. (Directions will be provided at the event.) 

You do not have to be present in order for your child to be included.  This is a family event, and children will be present.
MOTHERLAND - The Film
Register to Attend Free Movie Screening

You're invited to join us at one of our two screenings of the new documentary film, Motherland.  Register Online.

This film follows six women from diverse backgrounds who came together to take a very unique trip: a 17-day intensive pilgrimage to volunteer in rural South Africa. Prior to the journey, these six women did not know each other. However they all shared one thing in common: they had all suffered the death of a child.

RTF is proud to be a supporting Partner of Motherland and we are hosting these screening events as part of:

National Grief Support Week - December 15-21, 2008.

TOUR OUR MEMORIAL
Read MoreA Place to Remember
Welcome to the RTF Angel Memorial Plaza, in Parker Colorado, USA. 

When you arrive at the park, you'll walk along the tree-lined path that follows Cherry Creek.  You'll pass the picnic tables and visitor shelter.  Continue north and you'll see the town's arboretum and all the young trees that are growing there in a natural setting...  if you look to your left, you'll see an angel.

Read more... see the memorial tiles.
As an all volunteer organization, we exist solely because of the generous support from people like you.  We know all too well how many worthy causes there are out there and so we appreciate your continued support of the work we are doing.

Sincerely,
 

Corinne O'Flynn, Executive Director
