Thousands of people came to the funeral of Sergeant Yuval Shoham on Mount Herzl. Yuval's grandfather eulogized him: "You fell as a hero in a just war of survival. Our sweet, wise and curious grandson, a loving youth who pursues peace." Yuval's father, Effi, eulogized: "I call on the prime minister - it's no secret that we don't see eye to eye, but here over my son's fresh grave I demand of you in his name and in the name of so many others: Make a deal. Our loved ones are fighting in Gaza so that the kidnapped will return. And to you, my beloved Yuval, I promise that we will walk the path we walked in the light. Your personal candle has unfortunately gone out, but your light will last forever."
