We are all destined to die. We share it with all who ever lived and with all who ever will be. Let the memory of all those we have lost be a

source of peace, and be consoled when the soul seeks its final resting place.

Let us not seek to understand what is too

difficult for us, nor search for what is hidden, nor be preoccupied with what is beyond, for we

have been shown more than we can comprehend.

As a drop of water, as a grain of sand on the shore are our few days in eternity. The good

things in life last a short time, but a good name endures forever.

Ben-Sira

“The memory of the

righteous

shall be a blessing.”

We recall members of our Congregational Family who are no longer with us.

Eternal God, Source of mercy, give us the gift of remembering. May our memories of the departed be both tender and true, undiminished by time, not falsified by sentimentality. Let us recall them and love them as they were. Give us the gift of tears. Let us express our sense of loss, our sorrow, our pain, as well as our gratitude and love. Give us the gift of prayer. May we comfort You with an open heart, with trusting faith. Give us the gift of hope. May we always believe in the beauty of life, the power of goodness, the right to joy. May we surrender our being, and the souls of the departed to Your eternal compassion.

22

I never think of myself as waiting for you, but then when the holiday has come and gone

when I’m packing up the Pesach dishes, or taking down the sukkah I feel hopeless and alone.

Inconsolable Then I realize

I’ve left a small corner somewhere deep inside myself

unpainted.

And in that small corner I’m still a child,

a little girl, waiting.

And I had hoped without knowing it

that this chag you’d come.

My tears fall on the Pesah dishes and I wonder

why you’ve left me here alone.

-Merle Feld

RABBI: G-d will not let your foot give way; your guardian will not slumber;

CONG: See, the guardian of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps.

23

Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there. I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints of snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain.

When you awaken in the morning’s hush I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die.

-1932 by Mary Elizabeth Frye

RABBI: The Lord is your guardian; the Lord is your protection at your right hand.

There are stars whose light reaches the earth only after they themselves have disintegrated.

And there are individuals whose memory lights

the world after they have passed on from it.

These lights shine in the darkest night and illumine for us the path...

-Hannah Senesh

RABBI: Wondrous in purpose, mighty in deed, You see all the way of mortals, giving each according to his ways and the fruit of his deeds.

35

I did not know the work of mourning Is like carrying a bag of cement

Up a mountain at night The mountaintop is not in sight

Because there is no mountaintop Poor Sisyphus grief

I did not know I would struggle Through a ragged underbrush

Without an upward path ...

Look closely and you will see Almost everyone carrying bags Of cement on their shoulders That’s why it takes courage

To get out of bed in the morning And climb into the day.

-excerpt from Gabriel by Edward Hirsch

RABBI: One thing I ask of the Lord, for this I yearn; To dwell in the House of the Lord all the days of my life, to pray in G-d’s sanctuary, to behold the Lord’s beauty.

CONG: G-d will hide me in His shrine, safe from peril. G-d will shelter me, and put me beyond the reach of disaster.

36

Heaven

It will be the past and we'll live there together.

Not as it was *to live*

but as it is remembered.

It will be the past.

We'll all go back together.

Everyone we ever loved, and lost, and must remember.

It will be the past.

And it will last forever.

- Patrick Phillips

RABBI: G-d will raise my head high above my enemies about me.

CONG: I will bring G-d’s offerings with shouts of joy. I will sing, I will chant praise to the Lord.

37

We Remember Them

In the rising of the sun and it’s going down, we remember them.

In the blowing of the wind and the chill of the winter, we remember them.

In the opening of the buds and the rebirth of spring, we remember them.

In the blueness of the skies and the warmth of summer, we remember them.

In the rustling of the leaves and the beauty of autumn, we remember them.

As long as we live, they too shall live,

for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.

When we are weary and in need of strength,

we will remember them. When we are lost and are sick of heart,

we remember them. When we have joys we yearn to share,

we remember them. When we have decisions that are difficult to make,

we remember them. When we have achievements that are based on theirs,

we remember them.

As long as we live, they too shall live, for they are now a part of us,

as we remember them.

by Kenneth Esrig

There is a hole in my heart that does not bleed A hole in my heart that burns round the clock.

There is a hole in my heart from an unexpected loss There is a hole in my heart - when will it stop? An arrow makes a hole that sewing can repair,

This is a hole made only by despair. The mending is slow and fixed only with care,

A hole so big, can it ever be filled? It takes love and support to fill this hole in.

A hole in the heart can take many forms An absence, a loss, a failure of course.

Don’t buy any thread no shovel or sand, This is a hole that only time mends.

Beth El’s Future Is Your Future!

Beth El has many ways for you to • Remember Loved Ones • Honor Families and Friends • Celebrate Special Occasions

Among them are

• Include Beth El in your will • Name Beth El as beneficiary of a life insurance policy • Dedication opportunities • Endowment opportunities • Memorial (Yahrzeit) Plaques • Leaf or Stone on our Tree of Life • A contribution to one of our many funds

Once in every lifetime ... A decision must be made by, or on behalf of, each person about a final resting place. The best time to select a site is when you don’t need it — when you and your family can make the right decision calmly and thoughtfully, together.

Please contact the synagogue office to discuss available sites in Beth El’s section at King David Memorial Park, planned giving,

endowment, or dedication opportunities.

a major task of love and labor. While we have tried to be precise and have rechecked our work, some errors or omissions may have occurred.

We ask for your understanding.
