Son of Dalia and Reuven. Shimshon was born in Holon on June 17, 1967. He was the eldest Ben Zion, Sharon, and Nurit, who attended the “Tokheir” elementary school in Pardes Hannah and the Nir Haemek High School in Afula, In June 1990 Shimshon joined the Israel Prison Service, serving in the Ayalon Prison (Ramle), and in 1992 he moved to serve in the Ashmoret prison, where he served as security guard. , Who cared for his entire family – was a devoted and caring son and brother, a loving husband to his wife and a wonderful father to his three daughters – Lior, Hodaya and Batsheva – “he was a model for his surroundings, His relatives say, “Always radiate light and love, always give the right advice and guide our way.” Zion, Shimshon’s brother, relates: “Personally, Samson was always the character I wanted to imitate. I always wanted to follow his path. During my youth I chose to study in the high school where Shimshon studied, and this was out of a desire to identify with him and to follow his path. “Shimshon saw in his work in the prison a house and family members. When he moved to Kiryat Yam with his family, he chose to continue to serve in the same unit, and not to replace it with another, and he was always pleasant and friendly, and in the last years of his life he became religious and observant. In addition to his preoccupation with spiritual matters, Shimshon remained rooted to the “physical world,” as my colleague testified “Even when Shimshon had to say a harsh word to the prisoner, as part of his job, he would have to say something to the prisoner, He would do so as a pain that proves his son. “On April 10, 2002, Shimshon was killed in a terror attack: A suicide bomber blew himself up on an Egged bus at the Yagur intersection, causing the death of nine people, Including Shimshon, and the wounding of dozens of others Advanced sergeant Samson was thirty-five years old when he fell. He was laid to rest at the Ofek Military Cemetery in Tzur Shalom. Survived by a wife and three daughters, parents and brothers. On the night before, he studied with his daughters and laid them down to sleep, bought and completed the needs of the coming Shabbat, and in the beit midrash he filled the place of the rabbi who was absent and taught the laws of Shabbat. He has worked for his Creator since he returned to the Torah and all its commandments, and when he reached the seventh year, he returned to the world, which is entirely Shabbat, Shabbat and Yefesh. ” In the Ashmoret prison, a monument was erected in memory of Shimshon, and two other guards were mentioned. “You are still young, at the beginning of your life, you were a friend to everyone, who always loved to help and never said no … You always laughed and did not complain … You loved life, family and children, you knew how to respect everyone and live with All of them … the day of your death is the day on which the heavens fell upon us “
