Jewish Cemeteries of Greater Cincinnati

2 weeks ago

In this video from the Warren County Scouting Showcase, Eagle Scout Ethan Zied shares how he researched and marked Jewish veterans' graves in Greater Cincinnati's Jewish Cemeteries. Hear Ethan's reflections on the impact of his project beginning at 17:12 in the video.

Ethan shares, "I was able to honor 2,500 veterans, some of whom never received recognition for their service in their lifetimes...For the community, the markers silently say 'thank you' for the veterans' dedication. And for the families of veterans, the markers and flags give honor to their ancestors' service." Thank you, Ethan, for your work that has transformed our cemeteries!

Our commitment to honor the memories of those whom we've lost remains steadfast even in times when we can not gather together and mourn those we have lost in the past year. Together with the Jewish Federation of Cincinnati and Weil Kahn Funeral Home, we created this tribute in their memories – may they always be a blessing: vimeo.com/454016557.
