Cousins Miriam and Rose will celebrate their Bat Mitzvah together June 20, 2015 at Temple Beth Am in Seattle.
Miriam is the daughter of Julia Bacharach and Dan Cory of Seattle and the sister of Ariana. Rose is the daughter of Debby Bacharach and John Palmieri of Seattle and the sister of David. Their grandparents are Mike and Sheila Cory, Ruth Bacharach, Jere Bacharach, and Barbara Fudge, all of Seattle, and Joe and Sue Palmieri of Oberlin, Ohio.
The girls are in 7th grade at Hamilton International Middle School and both love to read. Miriam especially enjoys swimming and math, and Rose enjoys dance and playing cello. For their mitzvah project, the girls worked with Grandma Sheila to create preemie quilts, which are given to families with newborns in the NICU.
