Craig-Flagler Palms Funeral Home, Memorial Gardens and Crematory, which has been hosting its Memorial Tree Lighting Service of Remembrance for the past 16 years, will shift to a livestreamed event on Facebook this year, due to the pandemic, said Sal Passalaqua, location manager. Tune in 6-6:30 p.m. Dec. 1.

Since COVID restrictions on large gatherings began, Craig-Flagler Palms started to live stream funeral services at all of their locations. They decided to use that method for the tree lighting service as well. There will be a brief prayer/dedication and lighting of the tree.

Families are still invited to place personal ornaments on the tree of remembrance any time after Nov. 27, or drop off an ornament at their office, 511 Old Kings Road S., Flagler Beach, and it will be placed on the tree. Visit www.craigflaglerpalms.com or call 386-439-5400.

Audra Rhodes, Florida licensed real estate broker, has announced her new ownership of Team Tofal real estate agency. The brokerage is headquartered in Palm Coast within Corner Suites at 4 Office Park Drive.

This acquisition took place in September in the midst of one of the most active real estate markets the region has ever experienced, according to a press release.

Audra Rhodes has deep roots in the Flagler County region and recalls when there was just a fraction of the population that there is now. She began her successful real estate career in 2004 and considers Donna Tofal a mentor. Audra accelerated to broker associate with Team Tofal in 2018 and was uniquely positioned to acquire Team Tofal when Tofal chose to sell the company to spend more time with family.

Team Tofal specializes in residential and commercial real estate as well as property management in the Palm Coast and Flagler Beach region.
