Rabbi Leo Dee, whose wife and two daughters were killed earlier this month in a Palestinian terror attack, tendered his well-wishes to all bereaved families in Israel on Memorial Day, Yom Hazikaron.
Lucy Dee, 48, Maia, 20, and Rina, 15, were murdered in an April 7 shooting on the Route 57 highway near the Hamra Junction in the Jordan Valley.
“I’ve been told that Yom Hazikaron this year is not going to be a time for unity of the Jewish people and that some people are planning protests or political rallies at ceremonies around the country,” said Dee in a video released Monday night.
“And I want to tell you something: I speak for the bereaved families, being one of the most recent, and I can tell you from all of these other families that I met recently at the shiva, we want one thing, we want unity. We want the memory of our families we lost through terror and through fighting those many wars for the State of Israel to be remembered and to be respected.
