Also mourning Rona Ramon, former US envoy Dan Shapiro tweets that she impressed him with her “kindness, grace and courage.”
I got to know Rona Ramon on a number of occasions, often connected to visits by the NASA Administrator or memorial events for her husband, Ilan z”l. She never failed to impress me with her kindness, grace, and courage. May her memory be a blessing. Condolences to her family.
