    JFNA Statement on the Passing of Shimon Peres z"l

    Jewish Federations deeply mourn the passing of Shimon Peres, z"l, universally recognized as one of Israel's greatest leaders and one of North American Jewry's
    closest Israeli friends.
    A member of Israel's founding generation, an eloquent spokesperson for his country and a strong advocate for Jewish people hood,
    Peres was both a pragmatist and unwaveringly optimistic
    that Israel would reach peace with its neighbors.
