a special mitzvah for the ten days of repentance

Kever Avot is the custom of visiting the graves of loved ones between Rosh HaShanah and Yom Kippur and has roots in Eastern European tradition. The rabbis present will lead a very short service and then visit each family member's grave to recite a special prayer.

Kever Avot will be held at all three local Jewish cemeteries:

Shalom Gardens with Rabbis Melanie Aron and Josh Berkenwald
Within Los Gatos Memorial Park: 2255 Los Gatos-Almaden Road, San Jose, CA 95124

Beth David Memorial Garden & Home of Peace with Rabbis Jayme Alpert and Dana Magat
Both within Oak Hill Memorial Park: 300 Curtner Avenue, San Jose, CA 95125
