In a little while he had more than he could imagine. As we are told in praise, the unique image of Yahav emerges, which we miss so much … We know that Yehab was a true friend, a God-fearing and secretly doing for the benefit of others and the community … His tolerant, humble and special way will be a guiding light for our future life, The defense of Israel and the State of Israel. “An excerpt from a poem written by Yahav’s mother in his memory:” Know that not a small person without money or gold has lost them, but a great absentee from society / full of mitzvot filled with Torah / To the House of the Worlds / to the cemetery, marching. “The family commemorated the publication of a book and the introduction of a Torah scroll to the Etz Chaim synagogue in Hadar Yosef.
