Dear Friend,
I have the honor of being the 4th generation President of Riverside Cemetery. Though many aspects of the Jewish community have changed since the beginning of the 20th century, the fundamental purpose of Riverside remains the same; to honor the mitzvah of Jewish burial with all the dignity and respect each person deserves. It is in this spirit that we wish to make your experience when visiting the cemetery, as timely, professional, dignified and comforting as possible.
Our prayer book, edited by Rabbi Stephen M. Wylen, and contains text for funerals and unveilings, and writings of meditation. You will also find a complete price list as well as information on purchasing gravesites here. Please contact me directly with your questions regarding any aspect of our cemetery.
With respect,
Peter A. Blacksberg
President
