We are so sorry for your loss. Sahar sounded like a selfless and very special young man. What a beautiful tribute you have made for him with this video and the gym in the park. His memory will live on forever.
“Do Good for Others” is something we have always tried to live by so it really stuck home with us when we heard that’s how he lived his life. It sounds like he made the world better for you, his family, his friends and fellow soldiers and everyone he came in contact with. You all should be very proud of Sahar and we’re sure you are. We send you our heartfelt condolences and thank him for his service and sacrifice. May his memory forever be a blessing.

Dear Family,
There are no perfect words for a loss like yours—no sentence that can truly hold the weight of what you are carrying right now. Still, I want you to know that you are not alone in your grief. You are in my thoughts, in my prayers, and in the hearts of so many who will never forget the sacrifice your loved one made.
Your hero gave something that can never be repaid—their life, in service of others. Because of them, people like me wake up each day with freedoms we often take for granted. Because of them, we live in safety, in possibility, in hope. That kind of courage, that kind of selflessness, is rare. It is extraordinary. And it will never be forgotten.
I know, in my own way, how deeply loss can change you. I lost my dad a year ago, and it reshaped everything I thought I understood about life. Grief has a way of settling into the quiet moments, showing up when you least expect it, and reminding you that the world is not the same. But I’ve also learned that it’s okay to change because of loss. It’s okay to carry them with you in a new way—to grow, to live more intentionally, to become someone they would be proud of.
Your loved one’s story does not end here. It lives on in you, in your memories, in the way you continue forward. And while nothing can take away the pain, there is something powerful in honoring their life by living fully, by holding onto the love they gave, and by allowing that love to shape what comes next.
I cannot pretend to understand the depth of your sorrow, but I stand with you in honoring your hero. Their bravery, their sacrifice, and their legacy matter—more than words can ever express.
May you find strength in each other, comfort in the memories you shared, and peace in knowing that your loved one made a difference that will echo far beyond this moment.
With deepest sympathy, respect, and gratitude,
Jessica DiGrazia

Dear family,
Shirel sounds like a hero and someone people would look up to. She died a brave fighter, and she sounds like she had so much passion to defend her country. You must know what a hero she was, and she sounds like she has a bright and heartwarming personality. I know that you MUST miss her so much, and every time you think of her, she’s most likely smiling down at you.
Sincerely, Simone

Dear Ofir’s family,
Ofir was a blessing for you. She might have been one of the bravest and strongest women in the army that I have ever seen. She deserves to be prayed for, and that is why I am lighting a candle for her. She is the miracle of your life, and she is someone people will look at one day, and see her picture on a wall, and say; “She was life’s blessing to us Israeli people. ” I saw her that way, and I hope everyone else does too. As for her father, you tried and it was not your fault. Never think that. You did everything you could, by trying to drive to her aid. She would want you to continue your life, and I promise she is watching over you, saying thank you to the life you gave her when she was a child and growing up.
