Memorial and Tributes

“We came to St. Mary’s after our daughter Michaela was diagnosed with a terminal illness… The staff did so much more than care for her medical needs. They were like a second family to us.”
—Jackie and Mike Califano, parents
The Califano Family

Gifts to St. Mary’s are an excellent way to pay tribute to a person. By giving a gift in memory or honor of someone who has touched your life, you can help the mission and major programs of St. Mary’s.

  Memorial and Tribute Gifts are a thoughtful and appropriate way to honor a loved one in sympathy or as a living memorial. When you make a donation as a memorial or tribute, we will send a beautiful card notifying the family or honoree of your generosity, keeping the amount confidential.
  Tribute Gifts are a perfect way to celebrate accomplishments or draw attention to special occasions such as birthdays, Bat/Bar Mitzvah, anniversaries, weddings, Mother’s Day, graduations, etc.
Have your guests honor your special occasion by making a gift to St. Mary’s.
In lieu of traditional favors, mark your special moment by making a donation to St. Mary’s. You will receive a bookmark or place card to present your guests telling them about your gift.
  Our Memorial Garden is a place of beauty (originally the private cloister of the Sisters of the Community of St. Mary,) and used by many for moments of quiet reflection. Stones surrounding the garden’s flower beds can be engraved in honor of a loved one or special friend. The garden is open and maintained year-round and its plants change seasonally.

The finest memorial or tribute of all is that your gift will support St. Mary’s programs for special children as well as expressing your love, recognition or condolences.
