Description
This is a small rectangular memorial plaque is attached to a wooden mount next to one of the synagogue’s large bronze Yahrzeit plaques, to the right of the Aron ha-Kodesh. The plaque is flanked by six small lightbulbs- three on each side. These presumably symbolize the Six Million Holocaust victims. It appears that these lights remain lit all the time, not just on any specific Yahrzeit (anniversary of a death).
