Active in his class, disciplined but willing to cooperate in any struggle for justice. A pleasant student willing to fight for justice but willing to admit when he was convinced of his mistake. A good athlete with a sporting spirit who is interested in the success of the whole team. Only one student could be elected head of the school every year – and Oron was chosen because the students trusted him and trusted him. He was attached to the boarding school and the school with all his soul and was active in every social event. Work that was given to Oron’s responsibility would have been done no matter what. And anyone who did not see Oron in his work saw no dedication or devotion. He acquired his good qualities in his home, which made his mark on him. Oron remembers everything as he proudly walks home to his home during his vacation from the IDF, with the red cap on his head and the brown shoes at his feet serving as a symbol of volunteerism and responsibility. ” The principal concludes his list: “We, who continue in the education of youth, see Oron as one of the eternal symbols in which Jewish youth have been educated for generations, and by virtue of symbols the people carried life and these symbols became part of our being.” His personality thus became an eternal symbol, From our midst to the world. ” A booklet in memory of Oron was published by the family.
