Hundreds of mourners gathered in Gush Etzion, south of Jerusalem, Tuesday, to pay their last respects to Leah (Lucy) Dee, one of three victims killed in the Jordan Valley terrorist shooting attack last Friday.
Dee was laid to rest at the Kfar Etzion Cemetery, near the town of Efrat where she lived.
During the funeral, one of Dee's surviving daughters, Keren, eulogized her mother saying: "Losing a mother is like losing a life. We worked on our relationship until we became best friends. There is no one to tell us what to do anymore. A hole has been created that cannot be filled. Mom, you were everything."
Tal Dee, Lucy Dee's other surviving daughter, said: "I need you. You are taking care of Maia and Rina now, but who will take care of us?"
"I need you. You are taking care of Maia and Rina now, but who will take care of us?"
Dee's brother said that his sister had "decided to give back to the community in the way she knew best, by teaching English classes and by cooking for new mothers and volunteers."
Two days ago, Lee’s 20-year-old daughter, Maia, and her 16-year-old daughter, Rina, were laid to rest at the Kfar Etzion Cemetery.
Dee’s two daughters were killed in Friday’s attack, while Lee was critically wounded, succumbing to her wounds on Monday.
Dee, 48, was an English teacher at the Orot Yehuda Bnei Akiva school in Efrat.
After her death, Dee’s husband, Rabbi Leo Dee, and her three surviving children agreed to donate her organs.
Rabbi Leo Dee told Israel National News that the organs have already been transplanted to five patients who had been waiting for donors, with two others receiving donated corneas.
