Ami-Ran (Amrani), Nir

The eldest son of Liat and Roni, brother of Melan. He was born on the 8th of Av 5737 (7.8.1977) in Haifa. Already at birth he was greater than average and amazed the doctors at the hospital, and over the years was ahead of those around him both in height and in his adult character. Nir was ambitious and interested in many areas from a very young age. At the age of seven, when computers were just starting out in Israel, he studied computer science with great diligence and interest. He had been captivated by the new media charms and had invested in it for a long time, sometimes giving up a night’s sleep to pursue his hobby. Nir grew up in Kiryat Motzkin, studied at the Ben-Gurion Elementary School in an art class and had a developed technical sense. Everything he touched touched wonders: a broken instrument, a broken object-everything could fix. Nir loved the country and traveled extensively throughout the country. The department included a family trip every month and Nir took great pride in it. Nir had many hobbies from childhood, such as collecting stamps and key chains and a great love for pilots. Nir collected stamps and visited exhibitions, and like everything he did, he deepened and expanded his knowledge of the subject. He also collected key chains, used to write to various enterprises and organizations and ask for holders, and indeed every now and then they sent him or answered him, which excited him very much. In addition, he was a member of the aviation department, built and flew model airplanes and participated in competitions. Nir participated in a group of wooden pieces and produced a variety of works – ancient boats, a clock, a guitar, a newspaper installation, a sewing machine and many other magnificent works. Nir loved football from adolescence to his last day. He was an avid supporter of Maccabi Haifa, whose symbols and flags filled his room, and he always made sure that one of the pieces of his clothing was the color of the team – green. Nir loved to give of himself for the community and during his high school studies, as part of the personal commitment project, volunteered for the Civil Guard. During his studies at the ORT Motzkin High School he went with a delegation to Poland, and the journey left a deep impression on him. He came back more firmly in his mind, saw himself as a patriot, and his political views, which were already ingrained in him, became even sharper. This journey increased his love and loyalty to the land. One of the things that characterized Nir a lot was the need to know what was happening in Israel and around the world. He was known as a “newspaper animal” and since then learned to read, the first thing he used to do when he came home from school was to read the paper. Nir, who from an early age showed interest and involvement in what was happening around him and it was important to know what was happening, was surprised to find that not everyone feels that way. Nir was also connected to the news on the radio and television, and when special events took place he would call regularly, share and update. Nir joined the Israel Air Force in July 1995. Nir joined the army and studied electronics engineering at the ORT Braude College, where he served in the career army for a year and in his last position served as an officer in the ” B. He performed his job calmly, devotedly and professionally, showing full loyalty to his commanders and the system he so loved to serve. Nir always listened attentively to the soldiers of the squadron and the squadron, and as his commander put it, wrapped his soldiers in warmth and love and had a pain that looked after his children. At the Ort Braude College, Nir met Talia, and in August 2000, after five years of friendship, they married. They were married for nine months and were already looking for a home and thinking about having children. But Nir, who was at the very beginning of his life with his wife, did not manage to fulfill his dreams. On May 21, 2001, Nir died in his home from an apnea and was in the midst of a dream. He was twenty-three when he died. Capt. Nir Ami-Ran (Amrani) was laid to rest in the plotMilitary parade in the Tzur Shalom cemetery. Survived by his wife, parents and brother. Nir’s grandmother, Yaffa Weiss Rosenfeld, collected, wrote and published the book “On the Day the Lightning Hit”. Liat, Nir’s mother, writes on the Internet site “Tapuz” on the blog “You’re not with me”, at http://blog.tapuz.co.il/mynir. The family members wrote: “Nir left us stunned, he is very lacking in us, Nir was very dominant in our lives, with a strong presence, a person who was pleasant to be with, gave us a sense of security and strength and knowledge that there is someone to rely on. A red-haired character with a special character, wherever he left a mark. ” The commander of the squadron where Nir served, wrote to him: “Nir, you arrived at the squadron a year and nine months ago, immediately after the officers’ course, and you entered the job defined for veteran and experienced officers and very quickly got into the situation. We are all responsible for the job, always with maturity and dedication, and only recently have you been sent to accompany a large group of reservists on their way to conducting training and operational employment – such as Always take the lead, lead the You were always attentive to the soldiers of the squadron and the squadron, enveloping your soldiers in warmth and love, and being a pain for their children, and we deliberated about your continued service and finally decided to continue your position in the wing. And you preferred to stay close to your family, a family you were especially worried about, Nir, you were a smiling, professional redhead, pleasant and comfortable to talk to, you were an officer and a gentleman. ” On the first memorial day, Nir’s mother said: “Nir, without you a year passed as an eternity, a year is over and we are again standing here with eyes full of darkness, sorrow and tears, and a broken heart and a forgotten heart. Between life and you among the dead, how difficult it is to express it, and of course it is even more difficult to believe, you are no longer with us, and will never be again, part of you still goes with me wherever I go, you with me day and night, ignorance and sleep. , Things I expected them to be, and as you are an inseparable part of me, we go through all together in a deep, deep pain. You are here below, under the stone everything is frozen – not because the stone is cold, everything is frozen because time has stopped, tears are flowing and memories are rising and delighting in what was and what could have been … the dreams you dreamed of, the aspirations you sought, And the more we love you, the more we love you, the more we will be proud of you for what you were, the more we will miss you: the laughter, the voice, the movement, the love, the knowledge, the determination and endless things that you have been for us. To Talia: ‘Without you, I am half a man,’ without you we are not what we were before you left. We are here: your parents, your wife, your brother, your grandmothers, your uncles, your cousins, your friends and everyone who knew you and loved you. “Mother Liat further wrote:” My dear son Nir, I sit there, thinking about those happy days before him A terrible day in which the wheel has turned and our lives have changed beyond recognition. About the happy days as an amazing baby who emerged into the air of the world, big, red, handsome, alert and alert, you were a wonder to us. You brought light and joy into our house and everything went on around you. You were an only child for four years until your brother appeared, You waited for him very much and even gave him his name and received him with great warmth … Thanks to Hen, you stopped appearing every night in our room with the blanket, diaper and pillow. On the day Chen came home, you got the job of being the older brother, leading and helping and showing the right way … You guarded him. You took care of him when we were not home. From the moment you identified the numbers and learned to dial the phone, we trusted you. When you were hungry, you prepared him to eat whatever he wanted, spoiled him and even cleaned everything and there was no trace of what you did. When you grew up and went to school, you guarded him with all caution and every quarrel or problem he had, you were the first to know and protect … You were so proud of him and supported him. I loved to see how you do for him with infinite devotion … to educate him to a very wanted order and if God forbid touched your possessions he was given a special ‘caress’ whose marks were left on his back for a few days. I remember and repeated countless times our last meeting in which you announced, Nir, in surprise, that you and Talia are coming. I was not prepared for hosting and dinner so we decided unanimously to go eat in the restaurant where you liked to eat. Chen asked that we postpone this exit because he did not return home from the base that weekend. I, of course, answered that there would be other opportunities for both of you to be with your partners and together we would go out as always … Who knew this was the Last Supper? My dear Nir, Our world has changed beyond recognition since that day four years ago, the light and the shine in your eyes are so lacking to me, how can I not see your shining smile forever and I will not hear your voice playing it … remember it well and sometimes even think that you hear it And also your steps approaching, going up the stairs and smiling, offering the cheek to give you a kiss and as usual I always ask … When will I get your kiss? And your regular answer … ‘Once’ … but all of them are witnesses that you will never be able to fulfill your promise … What does not suit you Nir, everything you promised exists. I remember our last conversation which was short because you were very busy at work and promised we would talk the next day, but I, who did not want to disturb you again at work, waited for an evening to talk. “My Nir, although this day is already so tangible that this is the truth and not a bad dream, physically you are no longer with us. Know my darling! Those we love never die, as long as our thoughts are in our hearts for ever. Hundreds of people accompanied you on your last journey, thousands of flowers covered your fresh grave, this is proof of your wonderful personality, so many you love. Beautiful memories from the past forever remain, we will remember you as a good person for strangers and family. Your baby’s sweet smile appears before my eyes, and you often manage to make me smile with you on a funny joke. That’s how I want to remember you forever, my Neri, I loved you very much. What a pity that man is like the brim of his life, as the pall of the field will look, for a wind has passed through it, and is no more. Rest peacefully on your bed. Your memory will live among us forever. Your loving grandmother. “Nir’s friends wrote:” They say that the difference between life and death lies in one breath. Nir and Talia, the couple who fell in love with the water, Nir and Talia the ideal couple, the legend that ended without reason. Nir – this is not eulogy and certainly not farewell, how can you say goodbye to someone who is always with you? Nir, this is just a reminder and a lot of thanks, a reminder in case you forgot that we love you very much, always trust you and think about you all the time. That’s thanks. Thank you very much for the opportunity and respect we have had to meet someone like you, thank you for always laughing at us, thank you for always being there for us, and for every moment we spent with you.Nir, this is not separation – because we are not letting you go. We know that you hear, and will always keep us. We wait for someone to awaken us from the nightmare we are in, to come and wake us and you. Nir, this is not a farewell – it’s just a reminder that we love you so much. “
