Bereavement in Judaism (Hebrew: aveilut ; mourning) is a combination of minhag and mitzvah derived from Judaism's classical Torah and rabbinic texts. The details of observance and practice vary according to each Jewish community. Since a candle's flame represents the neshama of a person, it is customary to light a memorial candle for the deceased in Jewish tradition on the date of death and for 12 months as well as yearly on the anniversary date of death. Commemorate a loved one with a special Yizkor candle holder. Purchase a special velvet cloth dedicated to your deceased, a kittel to be wrapped in, Jewish sympathy cards for the family, and books on Jewish death to cope and educate the loved ones left over.
