MONTREAL — A Montreal man who was killed in Israel during a surprise attack by Hamas earlier this month was remembered as a hero and a"larger-than-life" personality at a funeral Thursday.
Look's father, Alain Look, said his son died while protecting others at the onset of Hamas's attack on Israel on Oct. 7. The 33-year-old was among the hundreds of people who were killed while attending a musical festival near the border between Israel and Gaza. Look was raised in Montreal and lived in Mexico, but went to visit Israel — a country he loved. On Thursday, his father expressed anger at Israel for failing to prevent the Oct. 7 attack but urged Jews to be inspired by his son to stand together.
He also shared fond memories of his son, who was nicknamed"Coco," and praised his kindness and generosity.One of Look's friends, Johnny Lallouz, described a man who was exceptionally generous to his friends, family and community, and who opened his doors to him when he was going through a tough time. Others who spoke recounted stories they had been told of how he used his body to shield other festival-goers during the attack, potentially saving their lives.
