Assaf Ramon 1989 - 2009



Assaf Ramon, Son of Ilan Ramon, Killed in Jet Crash

IAF F-16 pilot Captain Assaf Ramon was killed Sunday when his jet crashed during a routine training flight over southern Hevron Hills.

Assaf Ramon was the oldest son of Ilan Ramon, Israel's first astronaut who was killed aboard the U.S. space shuttle Columbia in 2003 when it broke apart upon its return to earth.

May they both rest in peace.

Agreed, a lot for one family (and especially one wife/mother) to give
