available or may be offered 
an opportunity to pick up a 
bag. Last year, 80 gift bags 
were delivered to attendees 
throughout Metro Detroit. 
The project has been 
underwritten by a friend of 
the Brown Program. 
Cantor Schiffer con-
ducted the 2020 service 
from her synagogue, 
Congregation Shaarey 
Zedek in East Lansing. 
Participants felt like they 
were in a shul setting and 
she could take out the 
Torah, which is also the 
plan for this year. 
“The service was impact-
ful for me and terrifically 
well-organized by the 
Brown Program team,” said 
Cantor Schiffer. 
The cantor said she was 
honored to be part of the 
service. “Right now, with 
the rise in the Delta variant, 
we all have to be especial-
ly careful. We may take 

technology for granted, but 
the ability to bring a High 
Holiday service to people 
living with dementia is real-
ly special,” she said. 
Currently the Brown 
Program, a joint initiative 
of Jewish Senior Life and 
JVS Human Services, is 
open at its West Bloomfield 
location, where it offers a 
day program with activ-
ities, entertainment and 
companionship for those 
living with dementia. These 
in-person services resumed 
in June; however, virtual 
programming that was 
offered at the start of the 
pandemic continues as well.

service, go to tinyurl.com/

Sen. Carl Levin Memorial Delayed

In the weeks since the 
passing of Sen. Carl Levin, 
there has been a tremen-
dous outpouring of loving 
memories and tributes 
about the senator to his 
family, who released a 
statement saying they have 
decided to delay a public 
memorial because of the 
resurgence of COVID-19.
“We will continue to 
monitor developments and 
public health guidance with 
the hope of announcing 
memorial details in the 
near future. Although it 
is disappointing to have 
to postpone, we think it is 
worth waiting to create an 
in-person event that honors 
Carl’s legacy of bringing 
people together,” they said.

Meanwhile, they invite 
people to email their mem-
ories, stories and photos 
to Levin.Family@wayne.
edu as well as record and 
provide a short video about 
their interactions with Sen. 
Levin or how he had an 
impact on oneself or the 
community. 
“
As we all wait out this 
next COVID-19 surge, our 
team will assemble some 
of these recollections and 
photos into a montage to 
be shown at the memo-
rial. Thank you for your 
patience and understanding 
in this challenging time, 
and we look forward to 
gathering as soon as possi-
ble.” 

May the coming year be filled with health and 

happiness for all our family and friends. L’Shanah Tovah!
