Almost the entire community of Rehovot paid homage today to one of its sons that was victim to latest terrorist activities by the Palestinians — Ami Shechori who was killed in London Tuesday by a letter bomb. The coffin which arrived last evening at Lod Airport was taken today from Tel Aviv Hospital to Rehovot, his birth place and where his parents are residing. Foreign Ministry officials, colleagues from the Ministry of Agriculture and representatives of the British Embassy attended the funeral services held at the old cemetery of Rehovot.
