WAILUKU – Organizers of the 12th annual Memorial Tree Trimming invite the public to hang an ornament Sunday at Wailuku Union Church in the memory of a loved one who has died.

People may bring an ornament to place on the special Christmas tree and are welcome to personalize the ornament, such as adding a name and dates of birth and death. Paper ornaments are available for those unable to bring an ornament.

During the program, the name of the deceased loved one will be called, and family members and friends will be able to come up to place their ornament on the special tree.

The church is located at 327 S. High St. For more information, call Frances Nelson at 244-0125 or Robbie Pestana at 572-6516.
