Yair was a man that valued the simple things in life. His family was at the top of that list. Nothing made him happier than watching the people that he loved flourish in life.
He was a devoted family man and loyal friend. He would do anything to help a friend, family member, or stranger.
Yair often said that his goal in life was to make his daughters have easier lives than he did. He taught his girls to have an outstanding work ethic and that you earn what you get and are entitled to nothing. He proved that as he fought as hard as he could through all of his medical issues.
He was proud and stubborn and brilliant and loved so very much by his family.
