Home News Tribune

Visitors tour the cemetery of Congregation Shamrey Tefiloh (formerly Shari Tephalo), on Florida Grove Road in Perth Amboy on Sunday.  The tours were organized to draw attention to the poor condition of many of the gravestones in effort to raise funds for their maintenance.  Robbie Saiff of Mahway, Roz Levine of Edison and Carol Robert of Virginia and Eddie Saiff discuss the gravestones, right.  Dr. Mona Shangold talks about the Chazin family graves.  She also invited visitors to add information about their own relatives buried in the cemetery.
