"Jewish Cemetery on 21st Street across the street from Trader Joe's!! Go there and imagine who they were in the 1700's and 1800's, where they came from, what the area was like when they set up the cemetery and look around where you are now. You cannot go in and leave a stone or a coin to remember them so leave one on the wall or gate around them. Say a little prayer as well. My son asked me what was so special about the neighborhood where I lived and this is one of those special things."
"I would pass it everyday on my way to elementary school and made sure I left a coin or cool rock I also enjoy visiting because as a Jewish person because of immigration I have no clue where half of my family is buried so visiting is very important because it helps keep the memory of these people alive and it is also very connected to the souls there"
"A very historic Jewish cemetery"
"One of three. Visit all of them."
"Very old and cool"
