This is one of those inspirational stories that one would not believe if not for the fact the people involved provide us with a firsthand account, once again showing us the gadlus of HKBH and how he forever shines his chessed upon His people.

February 2011: Rabbi Yotev Eliach was leading a group of 50 high school students in Israel. There last stop was the Mt. Herzl Military Cemetery in Yerushalayim. During this visit Rabbi Eliach saw an elderly couple crying aside the kever of their son, Erez Deri HY”D.

Mrs. Deri explained Eretz was a paratrooper who was tragically killed in 2006. Then she told them something that left them speechless. See the video.
