Bob Milgrim's world shattered in an instant. In May, during a walk with his wife Nancy, he remarked on their perfect life, complete with two beautiful children. Their only concern was their daughter Sarah, 26, potentially living far away, limiting grandparenting opportunities.
Less than a week later, that perfect life was irrevocably torn apart. On May 21st, Sarah and her boyfriend, Yaron Lischinsky, were fatally shot as they left an event at the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. According to a witness, the gunman chillingly confessed to police, "I did it for Gaza."
The Milgrims went from anticipating grandchildren to burying their beloved daughter. From a future brimming with promise to a present filled with only memories. Bob Milgrim now grapples with the immense void left by Sarah's absence.
"She was everything. She did everything," Bob recounted to CNN, his voice heavy with grief and pride. He shared a litany of Sarah's accomplishments: excelling in sports and music, singing in European cathedrals during a high school tour. She was also a passionate beekeeper and volunteered at a rescue center, caring for injured birds of prey.
Sarah's life, tragically cut short, leaves behind a legacy of passion, dedication, and a profound impact on those who knew her. Her father's grief is a testament to the bright light extinguished far too soon.
