A Taphophilia Thank You...

Taphophilia (dot) Com would not be possible without the knowledge, experience and talent of DarkestWeb. From
its conception and early development, DarkestWeb
was faced with many challenges; from inspiring and motivating, to providing guidance and direction. The continued dedication and support has produced results greater than ever expected, and for this, I owe a huge debt of gratitude.

Compassionate Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting Bonds Bereaved Families

Wednesday, 02 April 2008

Families that have experienced the death of a child have one day during the year and the difficult holiday season to join with bereaved families around the globe to honor the memory of their child and all children of any age who have died. The Worldwide Candle Lighting, sponsored by The Compassionate Friends and held on the second Sunday in December, is believed by many to be the largest mass candle lighting on the globe as hundreds of services are held throughout all 50 United States, as well as abroad. Officially the Worldwide Candle Lighting starts at 7 p.m. local time for one hour around the globe, but services are held throughout the day. At least 14 countries abroad are holding formal candle lightings and thousands of messages are expected to flood The Compassionate Friends Remembrance Book on TCF's national website during the Worldwide Candle Lighting Day.
