Why isn't Israel Sameljan's Yahrzeit Exact?

We do not know the exact date of death of Israel Sameljan. According to Jewish tradition, if the exact date of death is not known, the yahrzeit of a person can be observed on any day, as long as it is that same day every year. Since that is the case, we observe the yahrzeit of Israel Sameljan on 24 Tevet. If you know the exact date of death of Israel Sameljan, contact us via the contact page.
