In collaboration with community faith-based organizations, Alachua County Community Support Services recently held the “Honoring the Departed” ceremony on Wednesday, October 18, 2023, at Evergreen Cemetery.
“Honoring the Departed” is a ceremony to memorialize indigent individuals who were unclaimed, abandoned, or unknown. The ceremony consisted of inspirational readings and songs to honor those who passed away in 2022.
“This is an opportunity to collaborate with our faith-based organizations and community leaders in honoring those we lost in 2022,” said Alachua County Community Stabilization Program Manager Satori Days.
