Our Sympathy

The Jewish Historical Society of Delaware is saddened by the death of Joel Citron.  Joel served as treasurer of the JHSD for several years. We valued his service to the board and to the preservation of the history of the Jewish community in Delaware.

Our deepest sympathy go to his wife, Barbara and family.

Joel and Barbara Citron greet visitors to Fort Delaware, May 18, 2009. Members of the JHSD visited Ft. Delaware for a special Annual Meeting and program.
