“Classic Tatty. He’s probably helping Mrs. Ganz push her husband home up the hill in his wheelchair,” the Amsalem family told themselves on Simchat Torah morning.
Several sirens had gone off, but Mrs. Amsalem was sure it was her husband’s sweet nature that kept him from arriving home on time.
They could not have been more wrong.
In an act of unspeakable silence, Yosef Amsalem* was murdered in cold blood. The five little Amsalem children lost not only their beloved father, and the sole provider of their family.
The Amsalem family always struggled financially, and now that Yosef has been murdered Mrs. Amsalem desperately needs support to keep little Sara, Shalom, Moishy, Yitzchok and Chani fed. A fund has been opened to help Yosef’s mourning family survive after this terrible loss.
