Valley Chabad and River Vale will hold its annual community menorah lighting at the River Vale Community Center on Monday, December 7, at 6:30 p.m. This year’s lighting is dedicated to the memory of Elizabeth Lewison, a young mother and River Vale resident who died of cancer last month. Her children, Bridget and Grant, will light the menorah in her memory. Ms. Lewison welcomed new residents to the River Vale community and was involved at Valley Chabad’s Hebrew school.

Elected officials, including the mayor, will be at the lighting, which will be followed by latkes, donuts, hot coffee, music, and crafts and prizes for the children. For ore information, go to Valleychabad.org/Chanukah or call (201) 476- 0157.
