Donating an engraved brick for our memorial courtyard honors a loved one and helps us continue our important work in the community.

The Royal Palm Memorial Courtyard and Kate's Garden, located at the main offices of Avow Hospice, is a place of peace and tranquility. The floor of the courtyard is lined with bricks which have inscriptions paying tribute to people who are held close to someone's heart. The Courtyard is open for visits 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Placing a brick in the Memorial Courtyard is a wonderful way to remember loved ones, honor friends or commemorate special occasions or a milestone in your life. Each brick measures 8" x 4" and can be engraved with your loved one's name or a special message.

At least once per year, individuals who have purchased a brick are invited to attend a Brick Dedication Ceremony held in the Royal Palm Memorial Courtyard. At the ceremony, new bricks are dedicated and a special program is conducted to honor loved ones being commemorated.

Bricks are available for a tax deductible donation.

In addition to memorial bricks, we offer specially designed stone benches (designed by Naples artist Jim Rice) and personalized plaques for tree dedications.

In honor of pets, we have created a Pet Rainbow Garden so pet owners can commemorate those pets who have played such an important role in their lives. Each brick measures 8" x 4" and can be engraved with your pet's name or a special message.
