Hosno, 54, was married to Ruthie, the father of seven and grandfather of nine. He worked as the director of the kitchen in the nearby high school in Yishuv Otniel. He was extremely active in the community, always smiling and everyone’s friend. He spearheaded activities and shiurim in the Mamrei neighborhood year-round, with an emphasis on the summer when many of the young have no organized framework. All of this was done voluntarily, never accepting remuneration for his time and efforts.
