His name is derived from the words of the prophet about the people of Israel that it will be “like the leaves of grass” (Micah 5: 6). Raviv’s birth marked the beginning of a new era in the parents’ lives after many years of waiting for the child. The rented apartment in which he lived was replaced by a new apartment that Raviv was able to enter as soon as he left the hospital. At his grandfather’s request, the circumcision ceremony took place in the new house. Fifty guests were invited to the party, but two hundred arrived. The modest apartment was narrow and contained everyone, and soon it slid into the grass near the house. No one cared that the prepared refreshments ran out; Everyone was happy with Raviv and came to express their feelings of identification with the happy parents. Unfortunately, the photos taken at the moving event did not survive and later became consumed by fire. Raviv was a smiling and alert baby, enjoying constant attention from all the family members. Grandparents, grandmothers, uncles and aunts wrapped him in love and indulged him in innumerable toys. His parents lovingly followed his development, worked hard to fulfill his physical and spiritual needs, and taught him to love man, to help others and to love nature. Indeed, Raviv’s great love was for animals of all kinds and all kinds. Raviv raised a dog, a chick, a turtle and fish; When he went out with his friends to play in the sand, his mother knew that she had to make jars that would bring in the myriad of worms, insects and snails he would bring.

Raviv had much more to offer us as a friend, a friend, and most of all a family that would not be comforted by the fact that he had fallen into his prime.

The wise king in man: “Like the death of love, it is hard as the ulterior of envy, its flashes of fire, more than the fire of war, and many waters of all days will not be able to extinguish Let it. Rest in peace, love and dear hero, the image of a loving God created man, God only understands the language of love. ” Raviv, his sister Mor, said: “… longing, sadness, pain – these are just words, your disadvantage is so much deeper than that, the intensities of pain that the words only do wrong to them, I would like my dreams to come true, Raviv. Come into the house and do not understand what the mess is about, saying that you were on a long, long walk, that it’s all right now, the dreams that you are just here, you can tell a lot about your success in your studies, your success at work and the brilliant future you could have. What you did, but who you were, that was your smile, the good you had, the love you had, the desire to give and give all the time, the simplicity with which you presented things, S you are done, your modesty. ” “When I look at you in all the pictures here, I remember you in such a real way, and I feel such a great sense of missed opportunity, sorry for not having done much, regret that not many people knew what special person you were And especially so great sorrow that you are no longer with us here, may your memory be blessed, Raviv. “Three years of black hole, three years of black hole, three years of black and black, three years of yearning and longing, three years of pain and tears, longing for your likeness, longing for your echoing laughter, longing For the beautiful days that were, and you are sitting there upstairs, you may ask God – why and why? ” Three years – on the one hand, it is not clear how three years have passed, but on the other hand, they look like an eternity, three years in which the longing for you only increases, the dreams that you return They do not let go, the guys who remind me of you on the street only multiply, and so – even the moments when you are missing … Raviv, no matter how long it will pass and what other experiences I will have – you are always there, inside … With your gaze, With Raviv I knew, you’re always there – and in the best moments. ” Shimon Ben Elisha wrote: “We do not have the tools to contain the pain, the lack of understanding, the helplessness, our sensory-existential helplessness, when suddenly something fundamental and stable is undermined. Yes, we care a little, we pray for their safety, but all in all we feel that we have them, that they are ours and ours, that these children, ourselves and our flesh, do not disappear just like that … And suddenly … In recent days there have been moments when I fall into sadness, depression, impatience. … the torments of the soul break the idols of silver and gold, making sure in a gentle, deep sense the futility of referring to things that appear From stable as a family,Friends, place of work or body power, as a basis for a sense of security and stability. The heartbreak brings with him a peaceful submission to whoever is in his hand. … We are all one heart that loves and hurts. It’s so painful because he loves it so much. “Guy wrote:” A dream that was lost but its memory will be preserved / A voice that has died but its voice will be remembered / Eyes closed but pine will never be extinguished / It will continue to shine forever in the hearts of your loved ones. “
