.@AmosSchocken1, you have many followers. This is a funeral for a lone soldier who was killed in action. Would you please kindly retweet. Maybe his family can have some comfort seeing people at his funeral.

Hold on. A soldier died in combat? When?

Okay...now a whole bunch of us wondering..when did this happen? Info. Anyone?

The circumstances around his death have not been released. I found out on monday night and my understanding is that his parents were already informed and enroute to Israel.

What is the Hebrew name of his father?

His parents are Shelley and Steve, I don't think his father has a Hebrew name.

That happens a lot in the U.S. I had to pick my own and also raise myself as a Jew no thanks at all to my parents of blessed memory.

My grandfather was a mohel and always made sure the boys had a hebrew name written on a certificate. He would frequently get calls 30 years later from people trying to find out their own name for their wedding.

May Alex's memory be a blessing. May the Most High bless his family and fellow soldiers with peace during this time of sadness. May Elohim repay the purpatrators according to their deeds.

May His Memory be a Blessing

BDE. Was this combat related?

I'm not sure of the circumstances surrounding his death.

Oy. I hadn't heard. I'll go if I can make it. Just awful
