Huge funeral for Mooz Brothers’ Yoni Helper
The community was shocked at the news of the passing of popular baker and restaurateur Yonatan Helper this week as a result of a stroke. Masses of both rabbonim, friends and family attended his funeral on Wednesday.

Among those in attendance were Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein, Rabbis Yossy Goldman, Dovid Hazdan, David Masinter and numerous other rabbonim.
Yoni was well-known as a humble and generous man who assisted people in need, but always discreetly.
RIGHT: The grave-marker reads as follows: PN (Po Nikbar – ‘here is buried’) Yonatan Eitan ben Eliezer. Tiyeh nishmatoh tsrurah bitzror achayim (‘may his soul be bound in the abundance of life’).
He was always supportive of Jewish community media as he believed is was an essential element in binding local and Israeli Jewry.
- Footnote: I will personally miss my regular interactions with Yoni during the last year where I learned to respect Yoni’s flair for creative marketing and design expertise for advertising campaigns for Mooz Brothers – Roni Lea.
