About the Event

The holidays can bring joy, but for those who are grieving, they can also amplify feelings of loss and isolation. Light Up A Life offers a space of remembrance, healing, and community during this season.

On December 7th, 2025, Hospice of the North Coast hosted our 45th Annual Light Up A Life candle-lighting ceremony at the Veterans Association of North County in Oceanside. This gathering provided a space for grieving families and community members to remember loved ones, share stories, and support one another.
