Dear family and friends of Emil, I write to offer my heartfelt condolences on the passing of your dearly loved one who served, fought and died with honour and courage defending his beloved ancestral homeland. I salute and admire him for his bravery, and valiant, determined efforts to protect and save as many lives as he could in the face of immense danger and under extreme pressure on that dreadful day when evildoers invaded and attacked a peaceful people. Emil is a noble hero of Israel whose beloved memory will continue to bless and his light shine, he will never be forgotten. He wholeheartedly dedicated himself to serving the country he loved as a honourable lone soldier to the best of his ability and with pride in his role in the IDF. He was passionate about his favourite game of soccer and gave a wonderful gift to his comrades by building an area for the off duty soldiers to play, this would have been very much appreciated. He was also a loving, devoted son and family member who will be greatly missed. This lovely photo taken at just the right moment captures Emil at his best, full of the joy of life and loving the moment, he radiates goodness, kindness, warmth, sincerity and sweet charm. Emil is amongst the best and brightest sons of Israel and a son, family member and friend to be proud of. Please cherish his memory, his laughter, his spirit and everything he gave with his precious life to those who knew and loved him and those who his life touched. Please know that many Jews and non Jews all over the world feel your pain and sorrow and stand with you. Emil is amongst the virtuous now in paradise where you will be reunited with him one wonderful joyful day. In the meantime, may HaShem comfort, heal and strengthen you and give you peace.

Dear Mst Sgt. Binyamin Elmakayes,

I want to extend my heartfelt appreciation and respect for your devotion, courage, and selflessness. We remain indebted for your unwavering dedication not just as a soldier of the Combat Engineering Corp’s 8219th Battalion, but as a loving heart and a passionate Zionist who chose to protect his homeland.

Coming from France, your journey to fulfill your lifelong dream of making Aliyah involved immense courage. As a Lone Soldier, you stood firm in the face of adversity and inspired countless others with your spirit of patriotism.

The news of your dream to start a family and your plans to wed the same week you fell in battle echoed your profound love and commitment. It’s a testament to a life that, though shortened tragically, was filled with love, purpose, and generosity.

You are a shining example of what it truly means to put service before self. Remembering your kind and generous spirit, we find sorrow lightened by the honor of having known a soldier like you.

Mst Sgt. Binyamin Elmakayes, we salute you and cherish your memory. May your life’s story continue to inspire others, and your spirit continue to guide us as we strive to honor your legacy.

With immense gratitude,

Jose M Fuster
