[HANASHIR:5689] RE: Funerals

[Emily Blank <eblank...>]

El Male Rachamim is a must, psalm 23 and Esa Ainei (I don't know how to 
spell it in transliteration) are pretty common, as are other appropriate 
psalms.  I think you'd want to get hold of a Cantor's or Rabbi's Manual. 
I'm sure those who have actually done funerals can give more details.  I 
only have a computer at work which is not where my notes are.

Dear Colleagues:

What are the appropriate prayers for funerals, in your opinion?  What have
some of you been performing at Reform funerals, Conservative funerals, 
etc.?

Please let me know, either here or in private.

Thank you,
