WATCH: How an Israeli NGO Supports Grieving Grandparents of Fallen Soldiers

An Israeli NGO, the Friends of the Israel Defense Forces (FIDF), is providing a powerful lifeline to grieving grandparents of fallen soldiers, a group whose pain is often overlooked.

Ruthie and Andy Weiser, whose grandson Staff Sergeant Roey Weiser heroically sacrificed himself during the October 7th Hamas attack to save others, shared how a special grief retreat helped them find solace, community, and a space to grieve openly.

In a room filled with hundreds touched by the same loss, the retreat offered these grandparents not only recognition and support but also the chance to feel seen, heard, and embraced by a nation determined to honor their sacrifice.

You don't have to know each other. They will greet each other, and help you with whatever it takes.
