Book of Remembrance

The Book of Remembrance memorializes those close to us who have passed away, but who have not been forgotten. This year we will have both a printed version for distribution at the High Holidays, and a virtual version that you can add names to throughout the year.

You can submit names and view the Book of Remembrance online.

If you have any questions about submitting names, please contact the office.
