I'm so sorry to hear this tragic news. Avner was a great
father, a great friend, and a a great person. He love for
Nature will stay in many ways with his family, and with his
friends.

I'm so sorry for Ajelet. They were the best couple that I've
ever known. Be strong, please, Ajelet, if just for the kids.

He once took a series of pictures of a maple tree near UTS,
showing the changing color of the beautiful leaves. Now
whenever I pass that tree, I would remember him.
