Hagi, Dov-Zvi (“Dubi”, “Deble”)

Dov was a full patriotic, polite and kindhearted patriot who loved his circle of friends and acquaintances, a devoted son to his widowed mother. He was always willing to help her at home and relieve her suffering. The purpose of his life and his ambition were to join the kibbutz and to do for the common good. Since his father’s death (in 1963) he has become serious and felt himself the pillar of the family for which concern for the safety of his mother and sister. The spirit of volunteerism that characterized him was a natural continuation of his membership in the youth movement to which he devoted most of his time and energies and saw a way of life for the future.

In September 1966, he was drafted into the Nahal Brigade, and when he was in the army he did not stop worrying about his mother, and he always tried to communicate with her in letters or by telephone. He also served in the IDF until February 7, 1968, when he fell in the line of duty. He was laid to rest at the military cemetery in Haifa. His memory was raised in the “Telmidon” of the school “Zevulun” to which he belonged.
