The Providence Cemetery on North Main Avenue in Scranton, a Jewish Cemetery dating back to the early 1800's, was vandalized and had suffered severe damage, where many of the memorial stones were overturned and the security fence around the perimeter was seriously compromised. As a result, a resotration committee was formed by the Amos Lodge #136 chapter of B'nai B'rith, headed by Allan Davidson, Amos Lodge president and Robert Yanover, immediate past president, made it their mission to restore the dignified condition and structural integrity of the cemetery. With active technical and financial assistance from the Jewish Federation of Northeastern Pennsylvania, the mission was vigorously enjoined and "The Providence Cemetery Restoration Project" was set into motion and this directory, as part of this project, was designed to help relatives and friends from every country in the world, using the internet locate their loved ones who reside in this cemetery.


A Prayer

May it be your will, Hashem our Eternal God and Creator, to protect the holy and sacred grounds, the flowers, the plots, the graves, the gravestones which mark the places where the bodies of our good friends and relatives, parents, mothers, fathers, grand parents, children, sons, daughters and cousins have been laid to rest. These special people, having died and passed away, now eternal souls in blessed memory, have met the certainty of death and the memories still remain strong in the hearts and minds of those who loved them deeply and dearly. So please let it be your will Hashem, no matter where on earth we or any Jew travels, in America, Asia, Europe, Israel, New York, Jerusalem, that we all remember to say the mitzvah of Kaddish in shul, synagogue, temple or at home, and be good Jews, true to Torah and our ancestoral, Judaic past and most ethical, kind and moral Jewish heritage. Amen.
