2021 Butterfly Release & Memorial Recap

July 1, 2021 by TRU Community Care

Thank you for participating in this year’s Take Flight Butterfly Release & Memorial. Whether you made a donation, joined the virtual program, released a butterfly for a loved one, or all three – we hope you had a meaningful experience.

View the montage of photo and video submissions of this year’s butterfly releases on YouTube.

Over 360 beautiful painted lady butterflies were released in memory of loved ones! Many participants gathered with families and friends they had not seen since the beginning of the pandemic. Some honored loved ones at cemeteries and memorial sites, and others found comfort in their own backyard, in the mountains, and elsewhere. One participant shared, “It was a joy to be part of celebrating the memory of my dad and friend – and especially spending time with all of you who make a difference!.” Another said, “Wow, what a beautiful event! Thank you for putting this together, and thank you for all you do.”

You can also view this year’s virtual program here at your convenience.

Thank you to our sponsors – Horan & McConaty Funeral Service, Ewing-Leavitt Insurance Agency, the Daily Camera, the McHale Family, and Marty Coffin Evans and Robert Trembly II – for their support, and thank you all
again for participating in this special event!
