hello mrs paley,
well im probably not the one u would expect to be writing u
after all i
wasnt particularly close with ur son. he was a friend though and
i read
ur updates every day. i do appreaciate being able to see how he
is doing
though and on behalf of the richmond community i thank u for
writing it
even though im sure its very hard for u. when i think of the
agony that u
and the rest of ur family must be going through right now i
grimace and
whenever i think about the incredible amount of pain yossi must
be going
through right now i feel a certain anger also. the truth is ur
right. y
should yossi have to go through this? what DID he do in his life
to
deserve this? yossi was a sweet boy. i knew that ever since i by
accident
hit him in the face with a plastic baseball and he was still
nice to me
about it. i also remember how u didnt make me feel bad about it
also.
(dont get me wrong i still felt terrible but it could and would
have been
worse if u werent the paleys). but i wanted to let u know that
whenever i
read ur updates and see the total and utter strength that u and
ur family
show and when i see the total and utter bitachon ur family still
shows in
the Creator it inspires me. thats right. u and ur family can
even inspire
a 14 year old boy. well i just wanted to tell u that i really
appreciate
the stregth u have given me without u even realizing it. i also
want u to
know that its adar, a month of mazel for the jewish people. a
month in
which haman tried to destroy ur but we he was unsuccesful. and
now the
malach hamvas is knocking at the door but it will be VERY
difficult for
him to get in bc its adar. and bc everyone who knows about him
is
davening for him. yossi continues to fight and the richmond
community as
well as everyone else continues to help him in this battle. i
still have
him in my prayers. i try to have him in every shemonah esreh
that i daven
and i have him in mind during tehillim. mrs paley and the rest
of the
paley family and yossi lets keep on fighting and with the help
of the
ribono shel olam we will win. WE WILL WIN! yossi ur strong and i
cant
even imagine the pain ur going through but i want u to know u r
stronger
than me and that is very obvious with the way u and ur family
are
handling this situation. the fact is ur stronger than any of the
guys i
know right now. and u have already gone through more than i
could even
imagine going through for the rest of my life. u radiate
inspiration for
everyone who knows u. keep fighting yoss man. bye bye.
Take me back to see more letters.
Take me back to Yossi's (z"l) main page.
