Rabbi Elisar Admon led the Chevra Kadisha that prepared the bodies of the eleven victims of the October 27th, 2018 synagogue shooting for Jewish burial. In this episode, he recounts how his brother’s death as a young boy inspired him to a life of service. Rabbi Admon moved to the United States in the mid-2000s to build bridges between American Jews and Israel.
This episode is adapted from an oral history interview conducted by Aliza Becker with Rabbi Admon on September 18, 2019 for the Meanings of October 27th oral history project. You can listen to the full unedited interview at The October 27 Archive website, which is managed by the Rauh Jewish Archives at the Heinz History Center: https://october27archive.org/profiles/rabbi-elisar-admon
