On October 7, 2023, the Kutz family — Aviv (54), Livnat (49), Rotem (19), Yonatan (17), and Yiftach (15) — was murdered by Hamas terrorists in their home in Kfar Aza.
Neighbors later found them together, Aviv’s arms wrapped around his loved ones.
Livnat, a gifted designer and educator, had dedicated her work to creativity and community.
Aviv, a devoted husband and father, balanced his professional career with his love for the land.
Rotem served proudly in the IDF, while Yonatan and Yiftach were promising basketball players with bright futures.
The family had returned from Boston to their beloved kibbutz, where Aviv organized a kite festival each year — a symbol of peace and hope.
May their memories forever be a blessing. 💔🕯️
