Old Montifiore Cemetery was intentionally misled by my father, to bury my mother, who's maiden named was Joyce McNeil, a Christian, within the section of my family merely 30 yards from the Lubovitcher Rebbe. My father who was born a Jew, purposefully lied to the cemetery, false;y claiming that my mother was known to be Jewish. She never converted. She knew no Hebrew, and she never observed any Jewish Law. It is an insult to the Rebbe, to have Christians buried in the cemetery, based merely on the word of a plot holder, without any documentation whatsoever. I was brought up Jewish, attended Sunday School at Shul, had a Bar Mitzvah, attended Jewish Camp, and was a member of a Jewish Fraternity at University. However, once I learned of the definition of a Jew under Jewish Law, I converted immediately with Chabad.

Was a contractor here once, what a place to do any business literally in the mist of a cemetery, excellent upkeep to the bones!
