star-of-davidYocheved (Judith) Landsman’s father, Eliot Landsman z”l, died peacefully yesterday morning back east. Yocheved left today and the funeral and shiva will be in Rochester, NY. There may be something back in Boulder next week and I will keep you informed.

Shalom on the neshama of Eliyahu Yisroel ben Shlomo Dovid v’Fagah.

Hamakom y’nachem – blessings of strength and comfort to Yocheved and all of her family.

    Update: There will be a mincha minyan to mark the end of shiva on Monday, May 13th at 5.30 pm, which will conclude with walking outside together with Yocheved. The gathering will be at Yocheved's house. Feel free to bring some vegetarian food to share.
