Death and Mourning

"HaMakom Yinachem Etchem B'tokh Avelei Tziyon Vee'Yerushalyim"

 May God's Presence be a source of comfort for you along with those who mourn among the people of Zion and Jerusalem, in Israel and in the world. 

Valley Beth Shalom offers you these helpful resources for your learning and to help you in your time of need. 

Yahrzeit Remembrance

Yahrzeit, the annual commemoration of the anniversary of a loved one’s death, is a traditional act of remembrance.

Valley Beth Shalom makes possible a permanent wall of remembrance, providing an ever-present tribute to important people in our lives. Your dedication of a Yahrzeit plaque helps perpetuate the memory of a loved one. 

Each plaque will include the name and the date of death according to both the Gregorian and Hebrew calendars. There is also the option of including the name in Hebrew. 



Please reserve a space on the Memorial Plaque Wall located at Valley Beth Shalom.

“The souls of the righteous live on in those who cherish their memories.”
