Nurit Geffen, the ex-wife of Yonatan Geffen who passed away a week and a half ago at the age of 76, refers for the first time to the death of the writer and poet in the "Coming in Time" podcast, which she presents together with her good friend Dalia Gutman.

"He died after he fell and got hit. I was worried that he lay there for hours and suffered, so the doctor told me that either he had a cardiac arrest and then he died straight away and if he also had a stroke, then they already lose consciousness a little and he didn't suffer. I think he didn't He suffered when he was on the floor."



Gutman told Geffen that there was a rumor in Israel that Jonathan Geffen had committed suicide.

"Yonathan did not commit suicide," Norit interrupted.

"It makes me laugh. I told you two weeks ago that he said 'I am happy,' he had never said that word before. And not only did he not commit suicide, he was waiting for his book to come out. He wanted to have the book published. Within a month, a new book is coming out which is His baby. He saw David Polonsky's illustrations in the book so much, Shira (Gefen - VT) made a final proofreading.

Aviv Gefen paid tribute to his father at the funeral held on Friday a week and a half ago: "Death is a blank page. The letters disappear and there are no neat lines. Because death is a blank page. Just a smooth page that fades, yellows and tears. Yes, there was a lot of me and you. There were many demons that stood between us Like a punching bag. There were timeouts that bled in the corner of the arena. But you were my hero. You were my saddest love. I missed you from the day I was born, and I'll miss you until the day I die."

At the end, Sher Gefen and his sister sang their father's song "A Place for Worry".
