My Jewish father died in 2003.He was cremated and no one said Kaddish for him. When I started my conversion to Judaism, I started saying Yizkor for him. Last Shabbos, a Rabbi recommended that I arrange for someone to say Kaddish for him on his Yahrzeit. (1/2)

" Any Rabbi can say that something is assur, it takes a good Rabbi to find the heter."
I think you'd agree that unfortunately today we don't have enough good rabbis."
