Zion Memorial Chapel 30 Years Celebration

Zion Memorial Chapel 

Zion Memorial Chapel, Westchester Country’s ONLY, all-Jewish, free standing and independent funeral home, is celebrating its 30th year.  Opened in 1996 under the advice and direction of Rabbi Steven Ziskind, a mentor and friend of Vincent Graziano, Zion was predicated on the belief that the Jewish community deserved better and more options when it came to burying their loved ones.  Zion, with no conglomerate affiliations and no shared facilities, has been able to maintain better than competitive costs over the years.  They remain, in fact, the lowest cost Jewish funeral provider in Westchester County and are proud of such.  Zion Memorial Chapel has created strong bonds with area rabbis who recognized the firm’s unique attention to detail and heightened compassion towards grieving families.  Zion continues to provide Westchester’s Jewish community with what others can not; a large facility not shared with another funeral home, thereby not impeding families who chose to have services and their desired dates and times. The directors and staff of Zion Memorial Chapel have a heightened knowledge and deep respect for the Jewish faith and culture which families witness firsthand.  For more information on the unique features of Zion Memorial Chapel , call 914-381-1809 or visit us at www.zionchapel.com

Think of it as the opposite of karaoke: no one is handed a mic to sing all alone—we display the lyrics to the entire room and everyone sings together.
And, unlike karaoke, we don’t use canned knockoff accompaniment—we play the best-known recordings, and our guests sing along with the original artists!
We have designed the experience for musical theater fans age 40 and up; but&nbsp;Gotta Sing: BROADWAY is fun for all ages—as long as you love singing show tunes, you’re in!
