Cemetery Rededication Ceremony
It was heartening to have such a wonderful community turnout for the rededication of Am Echod Cemetery on Sunday. We were led in prayer and song by Rabbi Bossov and Robert Klein. Additionally, we heard from members of the community, including Waukegan Mayor – Ann Taylor, Congressman Brad Schneider, Anti-Defamation League representative – Trent Spoolstra, and Pastor Jim Scudder from Quentin Road Baptist Church.
For those unable to attend, you may view video of the event below.
