With the hustle and bustle of our daily lives it is sometimes difficult for us to remember the yahrzeits (anniversary of passing) of our loved ones. When we miss the yahrzeit of a loved one it can be especially painful. In an effort to help our community members remember all of the loved ones who have passed from their lives, we are updating our records. A yahrzeit reminder letter will be sent to you in advance of the yahrzeit dates you specify.
Mourners often light a yahrzeit candle which burns from sunset on the previous evening to sunset on the day of yahrzeit. If you need a candle, please call the TBS office. If you have any questions about Jewish ways of mourning, feel free to contact Rabbi Shinder. A brief pamphlet is available to guide you through the lighting.
You are encouraged to join us for Shabbat services on the Friday evening preceding the yahrzeit. The names of the departed will be read from the pulpit prior to the recitation of the Kaddish. Even if you believe we have the correct information in our records, please fill out the form below. Indicate whether you prefer to observe the yahrzeit on the Hebrew or English date. If you would like to observe the Hebrew date, but do not know when that is, we can determine it from the English date (please include the year).
