At Gutterman’s and Gutterman Warheit, with funeral chapels in New York and Florida, we have provided professional, compassionate and transparent funeral services to Jewish families for more than a century and a quarter. It’s always been a calling for us—we’ve been family owned and operated since we founded our firm in 1892. Our employees take the same approach—many have been with us for decades and some have spent their entire careers helping us serve the Jewish community.

Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year Festival, will be celebrated from Monday, September 22 through Wednesday, September 24 this year. It’s a time of introspection, penitence and prayer, with special foods prepared and shared, as well as the blowing of the shofar. One of the most important rituals that takes place during Rosh Hashanah is the Tashlikh. Let’s take a closer look at what Tashlikh is, its history, and how it’s commonly practiced.

Jewish Rock—Origins and Current Trends
Music has long been an integral part of Jewish culture, often playing a special role in Jewish religious practices. The Pizmonim are traditional Jewish tunes sung both to praise God and to facilitate certain teachings. The baqashot, practiced in Sephardic communities in Turkey, Morocco and Syria, include songs in praise of God, for Shabbat, and of longing for the Holy Land. Another popular form of Jewish music, known as Jewish rock, originated around the middle of the 20th century and remains vibrant today.

The Guidance You Need to Arrange a Memorial Service.
A memorial service looks very much like a funeral. In most instances, the only difference is that the decedent is not present. We’ll work with you and your rabbi, if appropriate, to put together the service, helping you find poems, traditional prayers and other remembrances to honor your loved one. https://guttermansinc.com/memorial-services/

The Jewish Presence in America’s Pastime

From its infancy in the early 1800s to the formation of the first professional baseball leagues in the 1870s to the birth of the major leagues and into the 21st century, baseball has been America’s pastime. From its inception, baseball has seen strong representation from the Jewish community, in the form of players, umpires, executives, agents, owners, broadcasters and fans. In fact, throughout its history, baseball has consistently helped Jewish people become a part of the American dream, often in the face of rabid antisemitism.

Humor and Jewish Culture
A 1979 Time Magazine article estimated that, at the time, approximately four of every five comedians in clubs and on stages across the United States were Jewish. That’s astounding when you consider that a mere 3% of all Americans at the time were Jewish. Why is there such a powerful Jewish presence in American comedy? What is the role of comedy within Jewish culture?
