There are two very important pieces of liturgy that we use to remember our loved ones: the El Malei prayer and the Kaddish.

The El Malei prayer asks us to imagine as if the Holy One has enormous wings that the souls of our loved ones are tucked in tight under, and that God is sheltering them and taking care of them in their last part of their journey.

The words of the Kaddish prayer do not speak of death or loss, but ask us to give thanks to God simply for the gift of life and to acknowledge the greatness of all of the wonder and miracle that we experience in life.

One of the benefits of the Beth El Mausoleum being part of, and on the grounds of, Temple Beth El is our ability to host a meal of condolence for as few as 25 guests and as many as several hundred. We have the facilities and an in-house caterer who will handle everything for you from start to finish. With minimal effort to set up and nothing to clean up, you can spend this important time with your family and friends.

For anyone who is facing a terminal diagnosis, whether for themselves or a loved one, the word “hospice” connotates that a life will soon be coming to an end. It is a powerful and often frightening word and may invoke a plethora of emotions for everyone involved. However, if we are faced with that decision when there is no other choice, hospice is one of the most valuable options that is available to all of us and our families.

When someone passes away, the first call should be to the funeral home. The family or the funeral home can then call our Mausoleum Director Mike Sirowitz to begin putting things in motion in terms of planning for the funeral. We will make every effort working with the family and the funeral home to set a time that is convenient and appropriate, ideally within 24 to 48 hours.

We will be with you every step of the way. We will work with the funeral home, the clergy, and the family, to create a very meaningful and appropriate funeral service for the loved ones who have passed.
