Visiting a Gravesite on Erev Sukkot
Question
My mother passed away on Erev Sukkot. This year is the second year since her passing, on 14 Tishrei. Is it permitted to go to the cemetery on the day of the memorial, or only on Erev Yom Kippur? Thank you
Answer
Shalom u'vrachah,
It is permitted for you to go to the cemetery on Erev Sukkot. It is preferable to do so before midday.
Gmar chatimah tovah,
Hillel Meirs
