“BIAV is looking to return hundreds of bronze Yahrzeit Plaques to loved ones” in the January 28, 2021, Chronicle sparked calls from throughout our community and beyond. So far, over 100 of BIAV's bronze yahrzeit plaques have been claimed by family members. 700 to go!
I'm writing to draw peoples' attention to the wonderful article detailing our project, and to reach out again to the Kansas City Jewish community — if ever you had family members at BIAV who may have purchased memorial plaques for loved ones' yahrzeits, or if you know families that have since moved away, please share the word so people can contact me to claim these treasures.
