7:31PM IL: According to Rav David Yosef Shlita, interviewed moments ago on Kol Chai Radio, the levaya of the members of the Saba family will “most likely get underway in about two hours although it is not yet final”.

The Rav explained he was associated with the niftar for over 20 years, praising his attributes. The Rav will not make it in time for the levaya but is heading to Mexico City later Monday night [Israel time].

He added that the son (Avraham/ Alberto) recently established a new shul and he, the Rav, was present for the ceremony. Avraham told his father that there was enough money and he wanted to return to the Beit Medrash. He too learned in Kol Torah in Yerushalayim. His wife z”l was not yet 20 and they left behind a 1-year-old infant.
