Everyone is invited to join Chevra Kadisha leaders for our annual High Holy Day cemetery visit, Kever Avot v’Imahot. This is an informal opportunity to visit the graves of our own loved ones as well as those who lived among us, many of whom were the early builders of our Beth El community. We will also recall our loved ones who rest elsewhere and whose memories we carry with us.

This year we are going to visit both cemeteries that Beth El is affiliated with:  

From 2:00-2:45 pm, please join us at Gan Shalom Cemetery at 1000 Bear Creek Road, 94553, near Briones Regional Park. This is the newer cemetery where Beth El and Beth Hillel have reserved additional plots for our members. We will meet outside the little office building just off the parking lot.

From 3:15-4:00 pm, please join us at Rolling Hills Memorial Park at 4100 Hilltop Drive in Richmond, in the Tel Shalom section. This is the cemetery where Beth El joined with Beth Hillel in Richmond many years ago to reserve a special section for our members.
