Tuval’s father, Tzuriel, eulogized his son: “Our Tuvi, the flower of our family, a gracious, beloved, and smiling child, how am I supposed to eulogize you? It’s inconceivable. My pain is too heavy to bear.
How can I speak about you in the past tense?
Everyone loved you, whether you were volunteering in MDA or afterward. Our world was destroyed when the uniformed men came to deliver the bitter news that we, too, have joined the family of bereavement and pain.
Our child, our crowning glory, the love of our hearts, you were given to us as a loaned gift. 20 summers of joy, happiness, pride, and pleasure. Thank you, child, thank you for choosing us to be your parents, sorry we couldn’t protect you, I promise you here, my son, that we will remember and commemorate and continue in your way, spreading good and light to the world.
We love you, our precious son, our personal hero, we will continue to fight in your place. The Lord gave, the Lord has taken, may the name of the Lord be blessed forever and ever.”
