spread out, and it’s not safe 
to be in a home,” says Rabbi 
Aaron Starr of Congregation 
Shaarey Zedek. The congre-
gation has hosted outdoor 
shivahs and other events at 
its Southfield facility and 
grounds. In addition, some 
shivah services are held in its 
main sanctuary with partici-
pants distanced and masked 
in this very large space. “We 
need to honor the deceased 
and comfort mourners, and 
achieve those mitzvot safely,” 
he explains.

ADDITIONAL OPTIONS 
AT THE CEMETERY
Clover Park Hill Cemetery is 
adding additional options for 
families who want to hold a 
shivah or commemorate an 
unveiling at the cemetery. 
 Ground was broken in 
December for a new Barnett 
Family Reflection Room, 
attached to the administra-
tive building but with its own 
entrance. This 1,000-square-
foot addition, designed by 
Daniel Lubin, will be avail-
able for rent for shivah or for 
gatherings after an unveiling. 
Clover Hill’s program coor-
dinator, Sharday Selby, will 
assist families with kosher 
catering and other event 
arrangements. 
The new facility is named 
in honor of donors Ken and 
Mari Barnett. Completion is 
expected in the spring and 

an adjacent patio is planned 
for outdoor gatherings, such 
as after an unveiling. Raznik 
points out that many unveil-
ings have increased in size 
because some funerals held 
during the earlier days of 
COVID were limited to the 
immediate family.
With COVID, more fam-
ilies are holding funerals 
in the Davidson/Hermelin 
Chapel, located close to the 
cemetery’s administrative 
building, which eliminates 
the trip from a funeral home 
to the cemetery. 
Additional outdoor space 
is being built adjacent to the 
Davidson/Hermelin Chapel. 
Raznik says that this addition 
— encompassing a terrace 
and expanded outdoor entry-
way — will accommodate 
guest overflow and provide 
space for families to gath-
er safely before and after 
funerals. This expansion is 
being donated by Harriet and 
Gregg Orley.
Raznik adds that there are 
plans to hold other programs 
and services in both new 
spaces. “We want to make 
things easy,” she says. She 
believes that Clover Hill 
Park is the only local cem-
etery to offer these on-site 
facilities.
