End of Life
Machzikei Hadas clergy and staff are here to help your family at these difficult and sensitive times. Jewish traditions surrounding death are extremely meaningful. If you are unfamiliar with the traditions, we can help you with information about the funeral, mourning traditions, shiva, unveilings and yahrzeits.
What to do when there is a death:
Call Rabbi Scher at 613-521-9700, ext 3. If there is no answer, leave a message and then send him an email at rabbischer@cmhottawa.com. He will return your call ASAP.
Our Clergy will:
-
Help guide you during this very difficult time
