I have to say he is a simply a marvelous human being. After I met him I could understand what old-time "prophets" would have been like - there is a certain magnetic appeal to him that cannot be easily described. There was a crowd about him at all times, yet he was so easy to approach and start a conversation. He gave his time liberally to everyone, high and low. Thank you Yossi, if you are reading this!
