Nechama And Reuven Rivlin

Media Release

 

The Australia/Israel & Jewish Affairs Council (AIJAC) offers Israeli President Reuven Rivlin and his family our deepest and heartfelt sympathy on the sad passing of his beloved wife Nechama.

As Israel’s First Lady, she was widely respected for her warmth, intelligence and kindness, as well as her focus on the arts, environment and children with special needs.

Her dedication to her family and to Israel will never be forgotten, and her memory will always be a blessing to all who knew her.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rivlin family at this sad time and AIJAC wishes the entire family a long and healthy life.

For additional information, contact AIJAC on (03)-9681-6660.
