Shirom, Gabriel (Mordechai)

Son of Suleiman and Batya. He was born in Nes Tziona on January 4, 1957. He studied at the “Yesodei Hatorah” religious elementary school in Ra’anana and completed his studies at Yeshivat Or Yitzhak in Yehud, where he was a good and disciplined student and liked his teachers and friends “Gabriel was a beautiful-eyed boy with a look of innocence and integrity, tenderness and compassion. He was loved by everyone, and although he was relaxed and relaxed, he became the leader of the children’s society. He did not impose power on the members. But everyone was fascinated by him. Gabriel was very talented, and his academic achievements were excellent. He did not stop at school and continued to buy Torah and knowledge in the afternoons, in classes in synagogues and in various study groups. As a responsible young man, he kept the school’s possessions clean, and helped each of his friends to the best of his ability. During his studies in the yeshiva, he even shared his clothes with him. In his spare time, he helped his parents, brother and sister and took part in the housework. Gabriel was drafted into the Israel Defense Forces in July 1974 and was assigned to the Ordnance Corps, and after completing his training course he was sent to a transport unit in northern Israel as a rescue driver. But on his visits to the house, he spoke little about his military role and the life of the army: On July 17, 1977, Gavriel fell to his place in the military cemetery in Ra’anana, leaving behind his parents, brother and sister. His family donated a Torah scroll in memory of the neighborhood synagogue in Ra’anana.
