know who they are. How he
treasured their friendship.
He is also survived by

choice.

Everyone experiences loss differently.
And while there is a certain structure in
Jewish funerals and rituals, it’s important
that it brings something meaningful to
all. We understand that. And we treat your
family’s wishes with all of the respect and
compassion they deserve. From guiding the
arrangements without pressure to the memorial
service and the appearance of the chapel itself, we
are here, fully here, to meet your every need. It’s not
the only way we help ease the burden of a loss. But it’s
a special type of caring that makes a Dorfman difference.
