YISKOR
September 2004
Rabbi Monique Susskind Goldberg

Question

Dear Rabbi,
Is one required to attend Yiskor Services after an unveiling or can one attend it that year?

Answer

During the first year of the passing of a mother or father, the custom is that one does not attend the Yiskor service.

I hope that this is the answer to your question.

Shanah Tovah!
