Guy Shabtay, Israel— Guy Shabtay, a beloved family man and dedicated individual, passed away after sustaining injuries during his service in Lebanon. He was just shy of his 40th birthday when his life was tragically cut short. His passing has left a deep void in the hearts of his family and community.
Guy’s legacy was one of positivity, joy, and dedication. Known for his radiant smile and loving nature, he was a student-athlete at Prairie State College and Valparaiso University before returning to Israel. After his studies, he enrolled in yeshiva, got married to Reut, and built a family with their daughters, Gefen, Halleli, and Chana. Guy’s commitment to his country saw him serve in Gaza earlier this year, and he was later called back to Lebanon, where he sustained fatal injuries two weeks ago.
The outpouring of support has been evident, with a fundraiser established by his friends in the United States to assist his grieving family. The community continues to honor Guy’s memory, remembering him as a man whose infectious personality and unwavering dedication touched everyone he met.
Our deepest condolences to Reut, Gefen, Halleli, Chana, and all who loved him. May Guy’s memory be a blessing, and may his family find comfort in the love and support that surrounds them during this difficult time.
