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.
To register online for the
service, go to tinyurl.com/

to register by phone, call

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!
