P

erhaps there is no greater symbol of Kavod Ha-Met (honoring the dead) than

the Shomer, the religious watchman who prays for the soul of the deceased. From

the first family we served 57 years ago, to the present, our chapel is staffed with a

Shomer 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Our legacy is serving Detroit's Jewish

community with dignity and

adherence to tradition.
