    Israel was a good friend that I met in 1977 at Blue Ridge Community College. He later helped my family in many ways with his amazing handy-man skills and wouldn't take any money for the work. He was very generous with his time and money and loved serving people. I am so sorry to learn of his passing - in true Israel fashion, he kept his situation to himself. I look forward to seeing you in Heaven, Israel!
