CANTOR STEPHEN FREEDMAN


Funerals

The loss of a loved one is a traumatic experience for any one of us. Honoring the life and memory of that person through a dignified and personal funeral service is one important way to acknowledge that loss and bring comfort to a grieving family.

I take the responsibility of “Nichum Avelim – Comforting the Bereaved” very seriously. Sitting with the family, learning about their loved one and crafting a eulogy that accurately reflects their recollections as part of the service helps me to help them grieve their loss.

I am available to lead minyanim - services in the home - during the shiva observance.

When the time comes to dedicate a headstone, many families choose to do so through a formal unveiling. I have created a meaningful ceremony which helps bring closure to the mourning period.
