“Zachinu”- it’s a once in a lifetime gift to have had you as our son and we will continue with all our strength.
We were gifted the treasure of this amazing boy, a generous boy, a loving and compassionate boy, a funny boy with a silly sense of humor…
A boy who likes to help everyone and not just himself.
That is always there for others.
Loves people, loves life.
Always surrounded by friends.
You went out to celebrate with your beloved friends and stayed with them forever.
You went out to celebrate at a party.
“Aba, you won’t believe it! There will be DJ’s from all around the world! It’s a special event that only comes once every few years…”
You thought you were being bombed while you were in the tent.
You woke Yuli up and rushed towards the shelter.
You arrived to the shelter and of course you sent a message:
“We have entered a shelter near Reim”
This was your last message to the family WhatsApp group.
The next message came 17 minutes later:
“I love you all very much”
Last message!!!
You entered the shelter.
You heard that there are terrorists behind the wall.
You decided to fight them,
A decision that speaks to the person you are.
You told the girls to stay back since you knew that the terrorists were about to enter.
You and Ilay ran out to neutralize the terrorists without a gun or any kind of weapon,
Nothing but your bare hands.
I’m sure you ripped them apart.
Otherwise how could it be that no one entered the shelter for 6 hours?
You celebrated, you fought like a hero.
Now rest.
We will continue to celebrate your life.
You will be with us forever.
