Celebrate our senior cantor as she retires after nearly three decades with Temple Sinai
Cantor Croen will begin a well-deserved retirement this coming summer.
- How to mark such a momentous change in our community?
- How to thank and honor our first-ever ordained cantor and longest-serving clergy member?
- How to celebrate the heart and soul of music at Temple Sinai, who has meant so much to so many?
Answer: Multiple celebrations! Mark your calendars for these events, scheduled for the closing months of Cantor Croen’s career with our temple.
