Winter Perpetual Care
Policy Change at
Beth El Memorial Park
In late July, a letter was sent to
individuals who had purchased
winter perpetual care at Beth El
Memorial Park (BEMP) which
includes sections for the Temple
Israel, Shir Shalom, Emanu-El
and Shir Tikvah communities.
The letter from Temple Beth
El shared that their congregation,
in partnership with Sloane
Consulting and Elmwood
Cemetery, had made the decision
that winter perpetual care
program would cease to exist in
the same way it was originally
created.
Individuals who purchased
winter perpetual care for a grave
in any of the sections at BEMP
would now need to “opt-in”
to receive this service going
forward.
Members of the community
who wish to have a loved one’s
grave covered with an outdoor
blanket or wreath-like decoration
this winter must reach out to
Beth El and request the winter
décor by Sunday, Sept. 1, as stated
in the letter.
Specific questions about the
cemetery or securing this winter
décor for the coming season can
be done by contacting BEMP
facility manager Steve Shukwit
at cemetery@tbeonline.org or
(734) 421-5680. Community
members can also contact Beth El
Executive Director Rachel Grey
Ellis at rellis@tbeonline.org or
(248) 851-1100.
