Request a Tribute

IMPORTANT: The requestor MUST be the person the tribute is for OR from the honoree’s family, clergy, hospice agency, funeral director, or funeral planner. Colleagues cannot request tributes, but they can share our information with the family and they can request us if they choose.

Living tributes are for nurses who are and must be currently enrolled in a palliative care or hospice program. Final tributes honor nurses posthumously (after they are deceased).
Respectfully, the WNHG will honorably offer one tribute (living or final) per nurse per lifetime, but not both. Thank you for your understanding.

Our tribute lasts approximately 10 minutes. WNHG volunteers arrive approximately 30 minutes prior, leave immediately after, and therefore it is imperative to gather approximate timing in order to schedule volunteer attendance.

We appreciate vintage photos of nursing graduation, headshots, with capes/caps if possible.
Please list pertinent information about the nurses education (school(s) of nursing attended and year(s) of graduation), credentials and/or certifications obtained, places and specialties worked, military service, favorite places worked, any special touching career related stories, etc.
Please copy and paste link to obituary if one is available.
The WNHG provides a single white silk rose (or depending on stock, a ceramic “lamp of knowledge”) to the family/honoree. We will need a name and relationship of the individual who will be the recipient of that single gift.
Does the requestor allow the WNHG to create and post a tribute note and photo of the honoree on our Facebook business page and business website’s wall of honor?

Please note: when requesting any WNHG tribute, you understand that we are a fully volunteer ran organization. Therefore, attendance of WNHG volunteers at any requested tribute is based on volunteer availability and our presence is not necessarily a guarantee of this request for tribute.
