book of remembrance At the rising sun and at its going down we remember them. At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of winter we remember them. At the opening of the buds and in the rebirth of spring we remember them. For as long as we live, they too will live, for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.

Giving tzedakah (charity) in memory of someone is part of what we traditionally do. The act of giving in someone’s memory is meant to mark the good deeds they did in their own lives and to perpetuate them for the future. If you want to mark the lives of a loved one please visit romemu.org to make a donation. 6

If It Be Your Will If it be your will That I speak no more And my voice be still As it was before I will speak no more I shall abide until I am spoken for If it be your will If it be your will That a voice be true From this broken hill I will sing to you From this broken hill All your praises they shall ring If it be your will To let me sing From this broken hill All your praises they shall ring If it be your will To let me sing
If it be your will If there is a choice Let the rivers fill Let the hills rejoice Let your mercy spill On all these burning hearts in hell If it be your will To make us well And draw us near And bind us tight All your children here In their rags of light In our rags of light All dressed to kill And end this night If it be your will —Leonard Cohen
