Duci Gottstein, a survivor of the 'minibus disaster', married photographer Rina Klein eight and a half years ago in a moving wedding at the Hadar Dimol halls, attended by family members and hundreds of friends.
Today they live in the Haredi settlement of Telzston-Kiryat Yearim.
The accident, which occurred in 2010, was considered one of the worst accidents in Israel.
It was in the intervening days, when the family's car stopped on the train tracks in the Beit Jobrin area, near Kibbutz Gat, after the driver failed to notice the warning signals. The train coming from the south did not have time to brake and collided directly with the minibus.
The disaster killed Duczi's former father-in-law, Rabbi Aryeh Leib Bernstein and his wife Rivka, residents of the city of Beitar Ilit, and their children - Yochanan, Hana Hania and Mordechai Aharon, and their daughter - Duczi's wife - Miriam, and their little son Moti, two years old.
