Peace of Mind — Cemetery Details & Memorial Plaques
There is never a comfortable time to talk about the purchase of burial plots, but our office is always available to discuss reserving spaces at significant savings in our active properties at Beth El Cemetery (Paramus, NJ) and Riverside Cemetery (Saddle Brook, NJ). We are also available to discuss Memorial Plaques or the Preservation of a Pew.

HASHKAMA - RABBI BLANCHARD'S BLURB
How many times--the song goes--can a man turn his head and pretend that he just doesn't see? Things get lost and have to be returned. Literally and metaphorically people too get lost and need help finding their way back to themselves. In living our daily lives, we see many different kinds of needs that must be met--financial, physical, emotional, and spiritual. But it takes effort to meet the needs of those around us, individually and as a society. We have to interrupt our routine and dedicate serious time. One part of us thinks: Who needs it!? There is a temptation to pretend that we " just don't see". It can be very hard not to just walk away even when we know we shouldn't. How do we learn to accept the sometimes burdensome and annoying responsibilities that come our way? And how much of our own sense of self do we give up when we " just don't see"?
Reflections on Deuteronomy 22:1 "You shall not see your brother's ox or his sheep wandering astray and [ you shall not] ignore them [disappear from them]; you shall surely return them to your brother."
