Farewell to Sonia Peres

Sonia Peres, wife of Israel's President Shimon Peres, died today at 87 years of age.

I was privileged to have known Sonia and to have experienced her intelligence, honesty, courage and refreshing modesty.

And then there was also her kindness -- how she several times invited our first born child, then a toddler, to her kitchen in Ramat Aviv to enjoy a snack.

Enough said. My heartfelt condolences to the Peres family. We will miss you, Sonia.
