Hadad, Meir
Son of Rene and Emily. He was born on July 31, 1944 in Tunis. Immigrated with his family to Israel in 1956 after years of study and the family settled in Dimona. After Meyer graduated from elementary school, he moved to the Amal High School in Be’er Sheva and worked as a metalworker in Sodom. In February 1962 he was drafted into the IDF and completed his years of service, during which time he was a model soldier, punctual, devoted, calm and cool, and his love for his friends was expressed in his good deeds. “We are living in a cruel and unforgiving world, and our job is to repair it and create a true symbol of love and faith among us that has been lost to so many people.” After his release, his brother supported him and then began to work in his grocery store, But sometimes he went to see his widowed mother in Dimona and was very Simcha to see her in her happiness On the first day of the battles, on the 5th of Iyar 5727 (June 6, 1967), the enemy opened fire from the positions of the enemy and Meir was hit by a bullet that penetrated the driver’s entrance and thus he died. The military cemetery for emergencies in Bari was later transferred to the eternal cemetery in Dimona, and its memory was included in the booklet “In Memory” issued by the Dimona Municipality.
