On Thursday 15 January our parish rector served the funeral of Nadejda Feldman in the chapel at Palmdale Lawn Cemetery and Memorial Park. Nadejda reposed aged 78 on Thursday 8 January, the second day of the Great Feast of the Nativity of Christ.  She is survived by her husband Victor, their children Vera, Lioubov and Alexandre, and their grandchildren.  May God grant rest to his newly-departed handmaiden!
