This memorial candle holder, named L'dor V'dor, is one of the designs from Lynn Rae's award-winning Dancing Sylphs® series of Judaic art.  The name means "from one generation to the next".  In Judaism, the anniversary of the death of a parent or close relative is most commonly observed by burning a yarhzeit candle for an entire day.  A burning flame is connected to the concept of immortality: stopping to remember is a way to be sure we will not forget.  Lynn Rae's L'dor V'dor yarhzeit candle holder creates a circle of light.  In the center the flame of human spirit is honored and celebrated by the gathered family and friends.
