Shloshim

Post by Myrtone »

This is the Jewish mourning period lasting 30 days after burial. Has anyone here got anything to do for Shloshim? For those who were never friends with Leonard, nor his family, the Shloshim goes for 30 days starting from when his passing was announced.

I don't know what activities are typically associated with Shloshim, Myrtone, but I believe that many of us are very naturally occupying that space of time and reason for it. Thank you for kindly bringing this Jewish custom to our attention.
