Kavod v’Nichum Community Meetup

Date & Time:
Wednesday, January 22nd
7:00-8:00 p.m. Eastern / 4:00-5:00 p.m. Pacific

Location: Zoom 

Join us for our January Community Meetup, where Sherry Bensimon will share her insights on the opportunities for partnership and support between the Chevra Kadisha and Funeral Directors in supporting Jewish end-of-life practices. With 27 years of experience in the Chevra Kadisha and dual licensure as a funeral director in New York and New Jersey, Sherry will discuss her journey into this sacred work, her path to funeral directing, and the essential partnership between funeral directors and Chevra Kadisha. She will explore how these roles intertwine to honor Jewish traditions, support families, and ensure meaningful end-of-life care. Sherry Bensimon is the first female Managing Funeral Director at Gutterman and Musicant Funeral Homes in Hackensack, NJ. She brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this conversation, offering a unique perspective on the importance and opportunities of relationships between Funeral Directors and Chevra Kadisha.
