It is an honor to serve as Executive Director of the Jewish Cemetery Association of Greater Waterbury, an organization entrusted with preserving sacred ground and honoring the generations who came before us. Our nine cemeteries reflect our community's deepest values of kavod, zikaron, v'achrayut (respect, remembrance, and responsibility), and we approach this work with great care and humility.
I am grateful to our dedicated board, families, and supporters whose commitment makes this stewardship possible. Together, we will continue to ensure that our cemeteries are maintained with dignity, transparency, and compassion, today and for generations to come.
