ANDY GOTLIEB | JE MANAGING EDITOR
EFFORTS ARE underway to organize a pilot project aimed at improving a small portion of run-down Har Nebo Cemetery — and organizer Rich Blumberg is optimistic that the project can not only succeed but grow in scope. Blumberg said his impetus came when he wrote a history of his family, which has 10 members buried at Har Nebo. Rich Blumberg’s ancestors, including great-grandparents Herschel and Har Nebo Cemetery disrepair in the summer of 2020 Rebecca Blumberg (seated adults), are buried in Har Nebo Cemetery. Photo by M.B.
