(Taken with permission from the rabbi.)

I went to Temple Israel on May 30 for David’s birthday and to observe yizkor. Yizkor is only four times a year, so this is a very rare event to have both his birthday and yizkor on the same day. It also happened to be Shavuot. David’s mother, Mona, said the prayers at home, and I attended the full service on behalf of his family, which now consists of only his mother and me. (His Aunt Pearl passed away August 2008.)

I’ll add more about May 30 later, I have lots to say!
