☔ Due to expected thunderstorms, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone Spring Remembrance to next Tuesday, May 20.

While we were hopeful for clear skies, safety and comfort come first. All other details will remain the same—we’re just shifting by one week and hoping for a beautiful day! 🌤️

Please RSVP to Alisha Patel at apatel@lungcancerinitiative.org if you’re still able to attend. We’d love to see you there and appreciate your flexibility! 💙

Please join us as we gather together as a community of hope and support to honor and remember those that have died. We invite anyone in our network who has lost a loved one (whether or not from lung cancer) to join us on May 13 at Transitions LifeCare - NC for a Spring Remembrance. Together we will honor and remember individuals that have died, but who remain in our hearts forever. Whether it’s been recent or many years, they will not be forgotten.

You will be guided through the Transitions LifeCare campus on a path to honor your grief. This outdoor experience will provide opportunities for reflection, creativity, and quiet contemplation. All ages are welcome. Learn more about Transitions LifeCare and their mission.
