• A moment of truth ZAKA-Identifying victims of disaster•

Zvi Mondry z"l

The volunteer Rabbi Zvi Mondri z"l, 5775-2015, "IshChesedHaya", personal lines written by the Director General of ZAKA Tel Aviv, in memory of a volunteer and friend, the late Rabbi Zvi Mundry, who was injured in an attempt to stop his deteriorating car and was mortally wounded, an injury from which he did not get up. When the unfortunate news of the passing of our friend R. Zvi z"l arrived, we felt great pain. Despite the age difference, I felt that I had lost a friend, which indicates the special personality of R. Zvi, whose face radiated to every person, a humble and honest man, whose hands were great for the benefit of the individual and the general in peace and in Sana'a. We have lost a member of the organization, a true friend, who stands up as a soldier to all who see you. Every morning when I arrived at the prayer, he would go down to his daily schedule after the Vatican prayer, not before taking a few Jews with him to their homes. Always smiling, ahead of the curve, and reminding me that he is available and ready for any task. He meant it. We tried not to take him out due to his age for regular events on the ground, but when he was called, he showed up. in his body and finances. He did not spare his dignity and did not spare his money. When they asked him to transport artifacts for burial from a remote location in his wide car, he refused to accept the cost of fuel and was happy to do so. The same vehicle that eventually caused his injury from which he did not get up. His place of commerce was for years in front of the Abu Kabir Institute of Forensic Medicine in Tel Aviv, and from time to time he would turn to me, "I saw that bodies were coming, why didn't you call me to help." When his car was stolen with the personal equipment of a volunteer, he did not let go and asked them to renew his bag, because such was Rabbi Zvi, doing and acting. Some R. Zvi Ika in ZAKA. Not to mention people his age. He was a guide for young people on how to devote themselves to kindness in general, to true grace in particular. Rabbi Zvi obliges the businessmen, the young volunteers, as a living book walked among us, his heart as wide as a hall, his face illuminating and giving a sense of fraternity and friendship, pleasant walks and a nobleman who escaped from honor. But we all appreciated him in his life as well. One of the dead gang will take care of the whole gang, one special KV. You were a member of Gomelei Chasdim and now the membership has been allowed, but we all have a duty to learn from his ways. I'm sorry for you, brother, because you've been very pleasant to me. Please recommend honesty for the whole bunch and whoever said enough to his world will say enough to our troubles.    [Published in the newspaper "The Informant" after the seven]
