Musician David D'Or honors Peres' request to perform Avinu Malkeinu at funeral.

Rabbi Dov Lipman posted the following on hisFacebook page: The most inspirational and meaningful moment in today׳s funeral for Shimon Peres, z"l.

No - not the speeches from two US presidents. Not Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Abbas shaking hands. And not even the beautiful tributes from his children.

It was the singing of "Avinu Malkeinu" by David D'or. President Peres, of blessed memory, asked for this to be sung at his funeral because he remembered hearing this prayer as a young child in Poland while under his grandfather's talit on Yom Kippur. (His grandfather was burned alive by the Nazis and that synagogue was reduced to ashes.)
