A month ago, my beloved nephew Omer (son of my sister Raaya and her husband Oren) was killed in combat in Lebanon.

Omer was thirty years old when he fell. He left behind his wife Adi and two little children, Neta, three years old, and Aluma, nine months old, who was born during the war in which Omer served as a reserve soldier for 200 days.

Omer was very talented, a man who loved people, books, and knowledge. He graduated from architecture studies a few years ago, was very successful in his work, and his professional future was promising. In addition to his reserve service, Omer devoted much of his time, as an architect who ascribe importance to accessibility, to volunteering for a safe future on the streets of Jerusalem.

Please email me at  if you would like to help Omer’s family.

Praying for the return of the kidnapped, a full recovery for the IDF wounded and the return of the fighters home safely
