Rose Hill Cemetery is pleased to announce a new service for families whose relatives are buried at our cemetery. Going forward, we will arrange to have the Kaddish prayer recited for a deceased parent three times a day for 11 months past burial. For any other relatives,The Kaddish prayer will be recited for the requisite 30 days after burial as required by Jewish law.

The Kaddish prayer is the short prayer in which we praise G-d for his special relationship with both the living and the dead. The recitation of the Kaddish lifts the soul of the departed, bringing it closer to the Creator. It is a genuine merit to your relative who recently passed away. By the very act of reciting the Kaddish prayer, we bring reward to the deceased and affirm the belief that life beyond is eternal.

Rose Hill price for this service is $720 a year for a parent and $180 dollars a month for a relative. Please consider this offer is one way to find comfort during this difficult period of time.
