The Only Privately Owned Veterinary Hospital in the Cornelius & Davidson Community

Lights of Love

A light in their memory. Help for a pet in need.

Lights of Love is Main Street Veterinary Hospital’s annual evening of remembrance, created to bring our community together to celebrate the pets who have touched our lives and left their mark on our hearts. This isn’t only about saying goodbye.
It’s about remembering the life and love that came before it.

An Evening to Remember Them
Thursday, January 14, 2027
6:00 PM - 8:00 PM
Main Street Veterinary Hospital | Cornelius, NC

We invite our Main Street families and community to join us for an evening of remembrance, connection, and celebration. Together, we’ll gather among softly glowing luminaries, each representing a pet who was deeply loved and is still deeply missed. The evening will include live music, small bites and light refreshments, shared memories, and a special tribute to the pets we are remembering.

Come to share a story. Come to see their name glowing among the lights. Or simply come to spend a few quiet moments remembering a friend who meant the world to you.

Light a Luminary

Each Lights of Love luminary is dedicated in memory of a beloved pet and will be illuminated and displayed during the event.

Memorial luminaries are $5 each.

You are welcome to dedicate a luminary to any pet you have loved and lost, whether or not they were a patient of Main Street Veterinary Hospital.

Can't attend the event? Their light can still be part of the evening. You do not need to be present to dedicate a luminary.

DEDICATE A LUMINARY

One Pet’s Memory Can Help Another

Lights of Love gives us the opportunity to turn remembrance into help for another pet and family.

Proceeds from every luminary benefit the Main Street Good Samaritan Fund, helping provide veterinary care for pets in our community when their families are facing extraordinary circumstances.

One pet’s memory can help another.

Come As You Are

There is no right way to remember someone you love.

You may be honoring a pet you lost recently or one you said goodbye to many years ago. You may want to share stories, walk among the lights, look through photographs, or simply be surrounded by people who understand why their absence still matters.

However you choose to participate, you are welcome.

We would be honored to remember them with you.
