Knesset Speaker Yuli Edelstein eulogized Rona Ramon, who passed away.

"Her son, astronaut Ilan Ramon, stormed into the sky before her eyes, and her son, the outstanding pilot Assaf Ramon, dived to his death in a training accident. A normal person would retreat into his grief, give in. An ordinary person would give in to the endless pain, but not Rona.

"With nobility she managed to emerge from the storm and demonstrate to us all what courage is, what faith is, what is choosing life," Edelstein wrote.
