Son of Henia and Mordechai. He was born in 1910 in Jerusalem to one of the oldest families in the city, and his grandfather, Rabbi Shmuel Eliezer the carpenter, fell on the watch of the Jewish settlement in Jerusalem. In Alexandria, he studied at an Alliance school, completed his studies, and in 1934 returned to Eretz Israel and settled there. He worked in various jobs, including in the building and the Tel Aviv port, and helped support the large family: seven brothers and sisters. He was fond of all his acquaintances with the simplicity of his manner and his courage and his involvement in the life of the country. In 1938, at the height of the bloody riots, he was called to be a guard-driver accompanied by workers to work in the quarry at Migdal-Tzedek. On December 12, 1938, when the workers were on their way, a gang of Arab murderers shot at them from ambush and Nissan was killed on the spot. He was brought to eternal rest in Nachlat Yitzhak near Tel Aviv in the “Haganah and Ha’apala” section. Lay down parents, brothers and sisters. His name was immortalized in the book “The Hebrew Policeman during the Mandate Period.”
