Response to Burying The Last Taboo – Rabbi Elachanon Zohn

“We are working with religious and lay leaders, funeral homes and cemeteries, as well as agencies that serve the elderly, and the community-at-large. We are also working to assist and ensure reasonable burial costs for those with real financial difficulties. It is my sincere hope and belief that the Jewish community is not ready to give up on this “last” mitzvah.”
