A story of hope between two families after almost two weeks of fighting in the Middle East.
It's a story of hope -- and grace -- between two families after almost two weeks of fighting in the Middle East. On May 11, Ira Yehoshua's husband, Yigal Yehoshua, died 500 yards away from their home after being hit with stones by a group of Palestinian-Israeli rioters in the city of Lod. Yigal Yehoshua was Jewish Israeli, but had both Jewish and Muslim friends, Ira told ABC News' Matt Gutman, adding he always sought to help others. After her husband's death, Yigal Yehoshua's family decided to honor his memory by donating his organs. His organs would allow another person to live, she told Gutman.More Related News
