Yakov Risin
Yakov Risin, age 73, passed away peacefully on February 14, 2026, surrounded by the family he cherished above else.
Born on April 23rd, 1952, Yakov was a man whose life was defined by the warmth he extended to others. He was a devoted husband, a guiding father, and a doting grandfather who found his greatest purpose in the happiness of his family.
His legacy is one of kindness, loyalty, and unwavering devotion to those he loved. His presence was a source of strength for his family, and his absence leaves a void that will be felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing him.
He is survived by his beloved wife Rita; his children Shlomit and Ilan Iliyaich, Nir and Inbar Risin; and his grandchildren Ben, Roni, Noa, Daniel and Gaya who were the light of his life.
You will be forever in our hearts!
