Tree-lighting
ceremony for LMF Light Up a Life to be held Dec. 1
[November 03, 2026]
LINCOLN – The public is invited
to the annual Lincoln Memorial Foundation Light Up a Life
tree-lighting ceremony, which will take place at 5:30 p.m. on
Tuesday, Dec.1, in the lobby of Lincoln Memorial Hospital.
The ceremony will celebrate loved ones and honor those who have
passed. A free soup supper, dine in or grab-and-go is provided with
an RSVP to the event.
Diane Campbell and her husband Dave have participated in the Light
Up a Life event for 30 years. “It’s a wonderful and meaningful way
to honor loved ones and special people in our lives,” she said. “The
Lincoln Memorial Foundation is a vital part of our Lincoln
community, and we support it 100 percent.”
Bill and Lauri Bates each grew up in Lincoln and returned in the
late 1970s to raise their family. “We had wonderful family and
friends, many of whom are now gone,” Bates said. “Lauri and I cannot
think of a better way to remember and honor those family members and
friends than to support the Lincoln Memorial Foundation through the
Light Up a Life campaign.”
An option to donate to the Lincoln Memorial Foundation in honor,
remembrance or appreciation of a loved one is also available.
Honorary names will be printed in special online-only publications
of Lincoln Daily News and New Herald News on Dec. 24. Deadline for
names to be included in the online editions is Dec. 1.
