Yahrzeit List

Each week, during Shabbat morning services, we read the names of the departed whose yahrzeits are observed that Shabbat and in the coming week. Names are grouped by the week in which they are read.

It is traditional to make a donation in the name of a departed family member. If you wish to donate to Temple B'nai Brith in their memory, you can donate online or send a check (memo line: 'Yahrzeit') to:

Temple B'nai Brith

Zichronam livracha — may their memories be a blessing.
