A Jewish cemetery in Toronto refused to bury a Jewish-born Canadian man who accepted Jesus some 40 years ago. Malvern Jacobs’ son, Les, said his father remained a Jew even though he became a Christian minister and a deacon in the Anglican church. Toronto’s rabbinical associations said they supported the cemetery’s move.
