Urgent: Stop Bernards Cremation and give him a Jewish Burial
Urgent: Help Give Bernard a Jewish Burial
Two weeks ago, Bernard passed away. He has been lying in a hospital morgue ever since, alone, unclaimed, waiting.
Yesterday, Chaplain Wilson called. I could tell from his voice that this one was different. A Jewish man had passed, his family was struggling, and time was running out. "Can you help?" he asked.
I reached out to the family right away. They were grateful, but what I heard next stopped me cold. They had been planning a cremation for their loved one and needed assistance with that.
I couldn't let that happen.
After a gentle conversation, and with the promise that our community would step in and cover every cost, something miraculous happened. The family said yes. They changed their plans and agreed to a Jewish burial!
But we need your help to keep that promise.
By donating today, you are preventing a cremation and ensuring a fellow Jew is laid to rest with the dignity and tradition he deserves.
Please, open your hearts. No amount is too small to help us bring Bernard to his final resting place in peace.
Please donate and share this campaign immediately, and may we only have good news to share.
