In the heart of unimaginable tragedy, Rabbi Leo Dee has transcended pain, inspiring the world with his outlook and fortitude in the face of devastating loss.
On April 7, 2023 on the first morning of Chol HaMoed Pesach, terrorists opened fire, attacking a car carrying his wife Lucy (48), and two of his daughters, Maia (20) and Rina (15) Dee as they drove on family holiday through the northern Jordan Valley. His daughters were killed instantly, while Lucy fought for her life in the hospital for three days before tragically succumbing to her wounds.
Amid the agony, the decision was made to donate Lucy's organs enabling five lives to be saved.
Our own Rabbi Naftali Schiff joins Rabbi Dee in his beautiful home in Efrat, Israel in a moving conversation about mourning, giving, prayer, and shalom.
