Son of Yaffa and Shmuel Aryeh. He was born on April 19, 1952, in Jerusalem. Brother to Shoshana. He studied and was educated in the religious state elementary school and at the Maaleh high school in Jerusalem. Completed his studies in physical physics. Moshe joined the IDF in 1971 and was stationed in the Intelligence Corps in 1973. In 1973, following the end of the officers’ course, the Yom Kippur War broke out and Moshe was sent to the Chinese farm on the southern front. Son of-Gurion “in Beer-Sheva in electrical engineering. In 1976 he married Shosh, a member of Moshav Beit Herut, whom he met towards the end of his military service in Jerusalem. In 1977 they moved to Haifa, where their eldest son was born in 1978. Two years later they moved to Kiryat Bialik, where their second son, Guy, was born in 1982. Moshe began to study industrial engineering and management at the Technion, in the information systems program, which was then in its infancy. He completed his studies, won the title of engineer and became a part of his studies. During the 1982 Lebanon War, Moshe was drafted into reserve duty as an intelligence officer and was assigned to the Armored Corps. During the first days of the war, he was wounded on the Syrian border and as a result of the injury he was recognized as an IDF disabled person, and despite his injury he chose to continue his life and made every effort to function as best he could. Moshe was forced to undergo a kidney transplant, and spent six months in Germany, distant from his family, and his friend, Tal Shahar, recounted that period: “We met during the days when they began to root in Zichron Yaakov. Not long ago we found a common language and mutual interest. You shared with me the distress of the medical need for a kidney transplant, and soon you had to fly to Europe to wait for its execution. It was an exhausting gift, in which you revealed your full strength of coping, both physically and mentally. The telepathic conversations between us on those distant nights turned friendship into a close friendship. The successful transplant brought you back to us, as someone born again. “Two years and a half after the transplant, Moshe took him in. When his father asked him if there was a connection between the kidney transplant and the damage he suffered, Moshe responded:” After all, “Since 1990, Moshe worked as a senior management at Amidar and as part of his work was an active partner in bringing Ethiopian Jews to Israel during the” Operation Moses. “Tal Shachar spoke about Moshe’s performance in his work:” Until these very days you have continued to challenge the limitations on your health, In the tasks that you imposed on yourself under the management of Amidar, as Deputy CEO, and in general, it was enough that you sometimes showed your modesty in order to salute a person who is the opposite of the drum The “Little Head Syndrome”: Management and science, thinking and development, computers and planning, training and study have made a tremendous contribution to the security of Israel and to the good of the country, all of which give you a place of honor among the benefactors and benefactors of this beloved land. , In your modesty, demonstrates that silence is equal to gold and that indeed, the blessing does not lie except in what is hidden from view. ” In a letter of consolation to Rami Erez, an employee of Amidar and Moshe’s friend, he describes his behavior and character: “Moshe was one of those unique individuals whose more you know, the more you respect, appreciate and love them. He was a great listener, with a lot of patience, with three quarters of a smile on his lips and a hundred smiles in his eyes, and when he did, he always took a few short words for what I was trying to explain and describe in long sentences. Restores the period in itWe worked together. It seems to me that I never heard him shout, even when anger always found a solution to the problem and always moved things quietly, in style. A bulldozer without engine noise. It was fun with him. I learned a lot from him. “In a letter to the family, Avner (Avi) Brenner of Amidar told Moshe about his last year:” Only recently, shortly before his death, did I learn to see his special talents. I saw his ability as a manager, as a co-worker, and as a pioneer who carried the tasks of the camp in solitude. In a short evening I was staying at your house I knew another, warm and pleasant aspect, which pointed to other expensive features that were only hinted at on the day before. Moshe, who transcended daily life, saw things very much and was not deterred from participating in any task that was imposed, whether in principle or in practice. At the funeral and after it, I learned how courageous he was to deal with his sufferings and limitations and overcome them, not to fulfill the duty of coping, but to minimize the physical difficulties and make them a reminder of his rare intellectual ability, his special personality and the genuine sense of security he had instilled in his people . May his memory be a candle for the education of his charming children, and his character in his sons will be preserved as a living, positive and optimistic reality. May you have no more sorrow and comfort in the memory of a rare man – a fighter, a man of work and an aristocrat. “Moshe volunteered for the position of chairman of the parents’ committee at the” Nili “school where his children studied and spent many hours promoting educational projects with the school administration In the social field of the school, he was able to maintain calm and calm, and offered help to all who needed it, without making a “fortune.” After his death, members of the Association for Saving Lives in Hod Hasharon wrote to Shosh, Her husband “donated his time and energy and good Lev and helped us in the flight of Meir Hasson, help we will not forget and is an example of real help to others.” “Tal Hachar, with Moshe’s funeral,” on the one hand, the hope that they had failed to save the Negro – Lt. Col. Avraham Israel z “l, with the death of Aharon Blitzky? On the other hand, the exuberance of the success of Meir’s surgery will be reduced to a long and good life, not only before the ice cream, but also the surgery scar that you have undergone, and I have already seen you at a meeting with a senior Israeli transplant doctor: To transplant, as you have. ” Moshe was a member of the Rotary Club of Zichron Yaakov and volunteered in every field in which he was asked. A week before his death he was invited to lecture at the club, and despite his physical weakness, he could not refuse the request. He took upon himself this extra task, on the evening of an exhausting day’s work. It was the last lecture of his life. Lieutenant Moshe Stern died from complications of the injury on the 12th of Adar Alef 5752 (February 16, 1992), at the age of forty was in his fall. He was laid to rest in the Zichron Yaakov cemetery. Survived by Raya – Shosh, and two sons – Itai and Guy. Itai was fourteen years old and Guy was ten years old when their father died. Moses left many writings, poems, thoughts, a long hospital diary, and prose. His writings were used to publish a book in his memory by his wife Shosh. At the memorial service marking the 16th anniversary of his death, Daphna Kalmar, a member of the family, said: “In our hearts and memories Moshe remained a young man, but we, all of us, have undergone sixteen years of upheavals, wars, Moshe was missing and was not with us, he was missing when he received a doctorate, which would fill his Lev with tremendous pride.He is lacking in lust and all of us. Even if we all continued our lives and made an effort to rehabilitate, Moshe’s memory would never be forgotten from our hearts … In my eyes Moshe was mostly a secret man. He did not speak much, but his actions and actions testified to a wise man, thinking. Lee remained from Moshe the man, the deep, listening, half-smile gaze. It’s funny to remember Moshe’s silence against the background of the Barf family, but he found his place there, and despite the noise he knew there was love in the air. Moshe is missing and we have continued our course of life. The fact that Moshe has a strong and strong continuing generation has comfort and strength. “In the course of his life, Moshe had a lot of time,” said Daphna Kalmar. And made his mark in the areas in which he worked. And most importantly, we will remember listening. Moshe was not a man of words and when I try to remember him, mostly I remember myself talking and listening, with lively eyes, a half-smile that still looks at us in the pictures at home … to tell you, I wanted, about Moshe I had a good friend, . He did not visit, he did not judge, just listened “
