Cohen’s family mourned him with tears. His wife, Tami, spoke about his unique character: “I received you as a gift on the second night of Hanukkah and you were taken from me on the fourth night of Hanukkah.. You managed to touch and reach everyone who knew you. I was blessed with my Evyatar, my best friend. My greatest love. An amazing father. I thank you, Lord of the Universe, for being blessed with such love. It’s too soon for me to return this gift, but I understand you, God, you want your Evyatar.”
