UPDATE: Funeral time changed to Thursday, February 19.
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of Barry Rosenfeld, z”l.  Barry was a member of Boulder’s homeless community; his body was found on Friday, February 6th. We know of no next of kin.

With gratitude to Har HaShem, Reb Patrice Spitz, the Hevre Kaddisha (Burial Society), Crist Funeral Home, and members of the Boulder Jewish community, we are honored to be able to prepare Barry’s body for burial and provide a funeral in the traditional Jewish fashion.
If you are able, please plan to attend the funeral, noon at Mountain View Cemetery, Kalmia Ave, this coming Thursday, February 19.  We wish to ensure that there is a minyan so that the full rites can be offered and kaddish for the deceased can be said.
Please participate in this important mitzvah if you are able.
With blessings
Haver
The Rabbinic Council of Boulder
