a
Volunteers Help Elderly Visit
`Graves Of Our Ancestors'
Temple Israel's Family Life Center
recently hosted Kever Avot, in which
100 volunteers took 60 senior adults
to visit the gravesides of loved ones on
the Sunday between Rosh Hashanah
and Yom Kippur.
Organizers describe the fourth
annual event on Sept. 15 as the "mitz-
vah of a lifetime," providing many
senior adults with their only opportu-
nity to make a cemetery visit.
Marc Siegler and Ida Nemzin were
event co-chairs. The Southfield-based
Ira Kaufman Chapel and the Susan
and Hanley Yorke Builder
Endowment Fund at Temple Israel
donated money to make the program
possible. ❑
