Yuri Volkov, who was stabbed to death at a crossing in Holon by the suspect Adi Mizrahi - is being laid to rest at the cemetery in Holon at this time (Sunday).
Yuri's daughter, Daria, paid tribute to her father.
"You were an integral part of the family, we still can't believe you won't come back to our house, hug and kiss us," she said.
"We still can't believe that that horrible person made a hole in your heart, he made this hole in the hearts of all of us and it will never be filled."
Prof. Roni Gamzo, director of the Ichilov Hospital, eulogized him: "Thank you for coming to share the sorrow with us. The violence prevents us from living our lives. All the people want is to live their lives, want more security - that's what the citizens need."

The family members asked to help them pay for the plot of the grave in Holon, and after the commitment of the citizens, about NIS 300,000 was collected and more donations came in bits.
The donation page reads: "Yuri Volkov, an auxiliary worker at the Ichilov Hospital, was murdered in cold blood on Wednesday evening because his wife Lena took a picture of a motorcyclist who ran a red light and almost hit the family members who were crossing a crosswalk. Yuri was the main breadwinner at home and now, beyond the immense pain and astonishment, Lena, his widow, is asking for the public's support in the future and the continuation of life. Every shekel will help Lena take care of the children and try to balance a little the financial problem caused to her and her family members following the shocking murder."
