Saul was a gentle and humble man who accomplished such great things. His courage was an inspiration. His love of family and of the land was so very apparent. Miriam, take comfort in your memories, know that Saul would never have left you if he could have stayed with us. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I feel honored to have known Saul.
