This installation consists of canning jars located on the gallery floor and includes viewer participation. The items in the jars are things that represent loved ones who have died. The viewer is invited to bring personal effects representing lost souls that are dear to them and include the items in the empty jars of the installation to leave behind in their honor.  Some of the jars are kept empty except for small, white candles that are lit for receptions and artist talks during the run of the exhibition.
