Yosef Cohen, a former resident of Naples, Florida and recently of Israel, passed away on Shabbos, 12 Kislev, 5781.
He was 66 and passed away after a terrible illness.
Yosef was a beloved husband, father, friend and community member to many. All who knew him knew that his wise advice and giving heart were a treasure.
His open home held hundreds of people throughout the years for shabbosim, meals, sedarim, shuirim and a listening ear. His sense of humor and pure kindness made him loved by anyone who met him.
He raised his family in Naples, Florida and moved to Israel two years ago.
He is survived by his wife, Chana Rus and children, Rivka and Shaun.
The family is sitting shiva in Rehavia, Jerusalem.
Friends of the family made a fund to help with the financial stress from all the medical bills and treatments. Now more than ever they need our financial support with paying for the burial and getting back on their feet. Please help out generously.
