MK Betzalel Smotrich has paid tribute to Avraham Mintz, who has passed away.
"If not for the coronavirus, the streets of Ofra [where he lived] would have been full of people [at his funeral]," he said. "Avraham Mintz lived 90 years of pioneering and making dreams a reality, with love, determination, dedication, modesty, and wisdom. Three generations that issued from him are now following in his path. May his memory be for a blessing."
