text: When my Jewish neighbor passed away, I was asked by his family to read Kaddish in English at his graveside ceremony following a reading in Hebrew by a the local rabbi.  With only my neighbor's immediate family, my wife, and another neighbor standing before the casket over an open grave during a beautiful California morning, the beauty and power of the Kaddish prayer resonated with its simple acknowledgement of "the One". 
  
  I have two Jewish sons-in-law, one of whom was raised in Israel.   One of my final wishes is for them to read Kaddish at my funeral, both in Hebrew and English.  Hopefully this request would be deemed acceptable from both Jewish and Catholic perspectives.
