NASHUA – More than 300 people gathered at Greeley Park on the night of Sept. 5 to honor and remember those lost to overdoses, alcohol and drug-related causes.

Hosted by the Avenues Recovery Center at Dublin, families, friends and members of the recovery community came together to show that sobriety is possible and that no one walks this journey alone.

The evening continued with a walk to downtown Nashua, where hundreds watched as lanterns floated along the Nashua River in remembrance of loved ones gone too soon. It was a powerful night of unity, healing and hope.
