Tamim, Alon


Son of Yaakov and Arlette. He was born on April 30, 1948 in the city of Sousse, Tunisia. The family immigrated to Israel in July 1957, and Alon was nine years old. He had already studied for four years in his hometown, and now he was ‘thrown’ into a foreign environment to which he did not know the language. The family settled in Tiberias, and in that city Alon finished the state school. Laleh had quite a few adaptations, but quietly and steadily, and in the perpetual smile, so characteristic of him, he learned to overcome them. When he joined the Hashomer Hatzair branch in the city and settled in it, Alon felt that he had taken root in his homeland and that he was no longer the frightened and embarrassed child who had come from far away from a fairly wealthy home, and now he knew the bitter taste of economic distress. Alon was a neat, diligent boy who was careful to do everything in his time and never neglected any of his duties. Studying at the time, active movement, and friends, sports and recreation at the time. He was already familiar with simplicity, quiet, honesty, unwillingness to be bothersome to others, contentment with evil and willingness to help every friend in times of trouble. After completing his elementary studies, Alon studied at the 12th grade high school in Tiberias and successfully passed his matriculation exams, and he joined the Nahal Eshet group, whose goal was to integrate into Kibbutz Shomrat. In September 1966, he began his compulsory military service and took various courses in the military course of the parachute Nahal Brigade, serving in the Six-Day War in the Golan Heights, but he did his duty, faithfully and without any challenge. One of his friends says: “Everything is simple. Everyone is ‘kittaro’ and he is not. He passed the period as if she were passing by him … he did not speak much. When he finished his service, he finally joined Kibbutz Shomrat, where he slowly acquired friends and sympathizers from all walks of life, and about a year later volunteered to help young Kibbutz Adamit, where he spent about a year and returned to Shamir with his choice of Lev. It was twenty-four when their wedding was held in the kibbutz, and their daughter, Ravit, was born after a long time with endless dedication and affection, and soon Alon became the avocado branch coordinator in the kibbutz, but offered a helping hand wherever he was asked. He always did something; “But he also knew how to enjoy life” without wisdom and philosophies. “He was involved in several sports, and most of all he liked to sail in a boat in the sea, and he was a tall and upright man, When the Yom Kippur War broke out, Alon took an active part of the Suez Canal and worked there for a long time, and this war ended unharmed, but his fate came about two years later when he served in the reserves. His job – on 25 November 1975. He was brought to eternal rest in the land of Kibbutz Shomrat, which he loved, leaving a wife, daughter, parents, two sisters and a brother.
