Yizkor Memorial Wall

 “A person is not forgotten until his or her name is forgotten.”
Talmud, Megilat 3:2


Dear Members,

Next Yom Kippur (September 2025), we will install a Yizkor Memorial Wall in the Chapel. It is a widely held Jewish tradition to honor the dearly departed and to remember their lives with a nameplate in a house of prayer. Cherishing the memory of loved ones is an important part of every family and community. 

We now have the opportunity to memorialize our loved ones with nameplates that will adorn the walls of our Ark. I hope that you will consider personalizing a nameplate for all your loved ones so that we can honor their lives as a community. 

The Va’ad Council has established a one-time contribution of $1800 for each nameplate, payable at once or over a three-year time frame. Families can also reserve blank plates for future use. Each plate can accept up to 27 letters per name.

Our Tamid Yizkor Wall will be a permanent homage to the family members of our congregation to keep their name and memory alive. I believe this will become one of the new centers of meaning in our community and I hope that the names of your loved ones will be present. For anyone that has questions, I would be happy to speak with you personally to make this a beautiful and lasting tribute for your family. 

In memory and friendship,

Rabbi Darren Levine
