Commemoration Ceremony of the October 27, 2018 Synagogue Shooting

The Commemoration Ceremony will be held in Levinson Hall in the Jewish Community Center of Greater Pittsburgh in Squirrel Hill at 6:30pm on October 27th. All are welcome. 

We invite you to gather in honor and remembrance of the eleven people who were killed in the synagogue shooting on Oct. 27th, 2018. Join with your neighbors, family, friends and community to mourn those who were lost and commit to bringing kindness into the world in their memory.

During this ceremony we will commemorate through song, prayer, and lighting candles. Our keynote speaker this year is Jason Lando, who was a Pittsburgh Police Commander at the time of the shooting.

We remember Joyce Fienberg, Richard Gottfried, Rose Mallinger, Jerry Rabinowitz, Cecil Rosenthal, David Rosenthal, Bernice Simon, Sylvan Simon, Dan Stein, Irving Younger, and Melvin Wax. May their memories be for a blessing.

The JCC is ADA accessible. Please enter through the entrance on Darlington. There is no registration for this event.

There will not be a livestream or virtual option for this event, but there will be a recording available soon after the event is complete.
