Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, is this Sunday, April 11
Following on the heels of Pesach, the joyous holiday of remembering and celebrating freedom, is a day of remembering and commemorating a tragic time in our history when freedom, and life itself, was taken away from the Jewish people and many others.
Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, is this Sunday, with programs and memorial observances taking place in the community throughout the coming week.
