Simchat Torah 5782

-

 


Today is Simchat Torah 5782. 

At Temple this morning we celebrated the Festival Service followed by Yizkor Service. Between the two, Rabbi Gary Pokras’ sermon connected them both by explaining how the stories in the Torah are the stories of our ancestors. As we proceed to remember those who have passed, also remember our ancestors from long ago. 

This got me to thinking about my more recent ancestors who I have honored by including them in my Genealogy. 

So on Simchat Torah, I remember …

My name is Michael Snyder; Mikey to her. I thought that bringing her from Maine to Maryland would allow me and other family members to have a renewed and extended opportunity to spend quality time, share experiences, and create bonding memories. Sadly that did not happen.   My Mom wanted to live her life on her own terms. She loved her husband George more than anyone else on Earth.
