Shaare Zedek UK, along with our board and trustees, remember those who tragically lost their lives on and since October 7th, 2023. We continue to pray for peace and the release of all the hostages.
Upholding the principles of Tzedek, Tzedaka
, and Tzidkus
My first experience in the renowned Shaare Zedek Medical Center was on the day I was born. Over the subsequent decades, I have visited the hospital many times, but the day I entered as the Rav of the hospital was particularly significant. On that memorable day, I felt as if I was walking into a world of its own.
Indeed, Shaare Zedek is a microcosm of the entire world in many ways: it embraces a baby upon its arrival into the world, plays a significant role throughout the stages of a person’s life, and escorts its patients through the final stages of their lives with great professionalism and sensitivity. It provides the residents of Jerusalem and its visitors with top-tier medical care at all stages of the lifecycle.
Moreover, the values of Judaism are embodied not only in the name of the medical center, but in every corner of the hospital. The Torah commands, “Tzedek, Tzedek Tirdof” (Deut. 16:20) –usually translated as, “Justice, justice shall you pursue…” Jews are commanded to pursue justice in every place and in every situation. However, the meaning of the Hebrew word Tzedek goes beyond “justice” in the legal sense, and might better be translated as “righteousness”. And indeed, every area of activity at Sha’arei Tzedek (the name means “Gates of Righteousness”) reflects the pursuit of Tzedek:

...continued from previous page
Tzedek in the sense of ethics and professionalism, consistently demonstrating an unwavering commitment to delivering the highest quality medical care to every patient, every time.
Tzedek in the sense of “Tzedaka” (kindness and acting charitably), showing remarkable sensitivity to each patient’s unique circumstances, including financial and social concerns, and tailoring their treatment with exceptional care and empathy.
Tzedek in the sense of Tzidkus (piety) - in going above and beyond what is required. I am continually moved by the extraordinary acts of kindness that the hospital staff perform for patients and their families. Whether it’s an extra conversation with a patient facing surgery, a compassionate interaction with a family, or an additional effort to ease someone’s suffering, these deeds are often carried out at the end of a long shift or a challenging week, purely because our staff are truly Tzadikim (righteous).
I believe that these three types of Tzedek stem from the same root: a profound sense of duty to excel in doing good for others, always striving to provide the best possible care and support.
Shaare Zedek’s founders envisioned a hospital that would unite professional excellence with Jewish and humane values. The remarkable leadership and management of the hospital throughout the years, particularly in recent times, have turned Shaare Zedek into a premier medical institution with a phenomenal innovative edge. While many institutions experience shifts in vision and values as they grow, this has not been the case here. Every new department and building integrated seamlessly with the hospital and its core values.
Shaare Zedek continues to set the standard for medical care in Israel, steadfastly upholding the principles of Tzedek, Tzedaka, and Tzidkus, always going above and beyond its obligations, driven by its deep feeling of responsibility.
These values soared to new heights during this challenging year for Am Yisrael. Despite the immense burden, Shaare Zedek rose to the occasion and demonstrated its unparalleled worth. Every helicopter bearing wounded soldiers, every ambulance transporting injured terror victims, and every person suffering from shock due to the sirens, was welcomed with an exemplary display of trademark Tzedek: unwavering obligation and professionalism, intense kindness and empathy, and boundless self-sacrifice for both the patients and their families.
It is therefore my great honor to write this introduction with deep reverence and heartfelt emotion in remembrance of the precious men and women who truly embodied and practiced these cherished Jewish values. Their noble deeds and unwavering commitment will forever be etched in our hearts and honored by generations to come. May their memories be an everlasting blessing.

About Shaare Zedek
Shaare Zedek Medical Center has changed the face of medicine for Jerusalem, Israel and the global medical community.
With over 100 departments serving more than half a million patients annually, it is the fastest growing hospital in the region as it continues to respond to the needs of Jerusalem’s uniquely diverse population.
Since the start of the war staff have lost loved ones, our doctors and nurses have been called up to defend Israel and the hospital must continue to operate to the high level that is expected of it. The impact of the war on the Israeli Homefront in general, and the medical community in particular, cannot be overstated. From both the practical and emotional perspectives, the challenges we continue to face are unprecedented, with a great deal of uncertainty as to what lies ahead.
Shaare Zedek treats every patient with the same unparalleled levels of care, compassion and medical excellence. The dedication and skill of the medical team cannot be compared, but unfortunately skill alone is not always enough to save lives. For these wonderful doctors and nurses to work their everyday miracles they need to be supported by the very latest technology and equipment. This is where your support and generosity play a crucial role and thanks to the donations of friends and supporters Shaare Zedek is able to remain a leading medical expert and maintain the high standard of care for which it is known.

Remembering loved ones: Permanent Yahrzeit Programme
Can there be a nobler and more fitting tribute to commemorate a life than through ensuring the health and wellbeing of future generations?
The Shaare Zedek Permanent Yahrzeit Programme provides an opportunity to remember and honour those we have loved and lost by providing a potentially lifesaving gift to others. We have been honouring these memories for over 100 years and each name will continue to be honoured in perpetuity in Jerusalem.
The Permanent Yahrzeit Programme ensures that Kaddish will be recited every year on the anniversary of your loved one’s passing. On that day, the name of the departed will be displayed during services when Kaddish is said at our synagogue inside the hospital. You can also arrange an Advance Yahrzeit for yourself or a loved one, providing the comfort of knowing that kaddish will be said annually in perpetuity for you or a loved one.
Jewish practices relating to death and mourning have two purposes – showing respect for the dead (Kavod Ha-Met) and providing comfort to the living who dearly miss the departed (Nihum Avelim).
The Shaare Zedek Yahrzeit Memorial Programme does both.
As long as we live, they too will live; for they are now are a part of us; as we remember them.” “
For a one off contribution of £800, the Permanent Yahrzeit Programme ensures that:
During the first year of mourning, Kaddish is recited three times daily in Shaare Zedek’s synagogue, regularly attended by staff, patients and visitors.
An illuminated memorial plaque will be displayed on the Digital Yahrzeit Memorial Board in the synagogue for the entire 12-month period
In all subsequent years, Kaddish is said every year on the Yahrzeit (date of death)
He or she will be remembered during Yizkor prayers on Pesach, Shavuot, Yom Kippur and Shemini Atzeret.
Your digital memorial plaque will be displayed in the synagogue on the Yahrzeit (date of death)
Every year, you will receive a letter to remind you of the Yahrzeit date
Your loved one’s name will be entered into our Memorial Book as a permanent reminder of your generosity of spirit
For further details of Shaare Zedek’s Yahrzeit Memorial Programme, please email oshrit@shaarezedek.org.uk or call 020 8201 8933.
Since 1902 Shaare Zedek has provided Hope for Us, Hope for Israel, and Hope for the World.
We rely on donations and gifts in wills to enable our lifesaving work to continue.

The Gift of a Lifetime: Legacy gifts
Over a third of all the support we provide for life saving work at the hospital is thanks to gifts left in wills to Shaare Zedek UK.
Shaare Zedek is Jerusalem’s success story. The research you fund is leading global thinking in how we can beat Cancer, Alzheimer’s and genetic diseases. The equipment you purchase is giving our doctors the best tools available to keep people healthy. The facilities you build are helping us keep up with the demand of being the fastest growing hospital in the region, treating thousands more patients each year.
Just as gifts in wills pledged in the past are supporting our work today, gifts pledged today will help us keep future generations healthy.
As a hospital we understand better than most that loved ones and family come first in one’s financial plans, which make the gifts we do receive so greatly appreciated. The names of our legacy supporters live on through permanent memorials in Jerusalem and in the UK.
The impact you can have on somebody’s life is immense. No matter how big or small, a gift in your will makes a valuable difference.

Memorial prayer for the departed
Psalm xvi, Michtam of David
O G-d, full of compassion, who dwells on high, grant perfect rest beneath the shadow of your Divine presence, in the exalted places among the holy and the pure, who shine like the brightness of the skies, to the souls of our dearly departed (whose names appear in this Memorial Booklet). We beseech you, compassionate Lord: shelter their souls for evermore beneath your protective wings, and may their souls be bound up in the bond of eternal life. The Lord is their inheritance. May they rest in peace, and let us say, Amen.
Memorial Prayer
Preserve me O G-d, for in you do I put my trust. I say unto the Lord: you are my Lord: I have no good beyond you. As for the saints that are here on earth, they are the excellent ones in whom is all my delight. Their sorrows will be multiplied that offer gifts unto another god; their drink offerings of blood will I not pour out, nor take their names upon my lips. The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and of my cup; you maintain my lot. The liners are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, my reins admonish me in the night seasons. I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; my flesh also shall dwell in safety. For you will not abandon my soul to the grave; neither will you suffer your loving one to see the pit. You will make known to me the path of life; in your presence is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures for evermore.
The Chief Rabbi’s Prayer for Israel
Our Father in Heaven, Rock and Redeemer of Israel.
We come before You in prayer and supplication, stunned and heartbroken by the merciless atrocities carried out against our beloved State of Israel and its People, turning the Festival of our Rejoicing into a day of our suffering.
We mourn the loss of many hundreds of women, men and children brutally murdered in these attacks and pray for their souls.
We pray for the speedy recovery of the thousands who are injured.
And may the Holy One, blessed be He, have compassion on those who are being held hostage and enable them to emerge from the darkness of the shadow of death to their freedom; may He break their bonds, deliver them from distress, and bring them swiftly home to their families’ embrace.
Almighty God, protect the families of Israel from the threat of terror and give strength to the soldiers of the Israel Defence Forces, whose lives are in danger as they confront our enemies.
Put into the hearts and minds of Israel’s political and military leaders the wisdom to make the right decisions to bring this conflict to a swift and successful conclusion, so that innocent civilians can resume their lives without the fear and threat of attack.
Spread over the inhabitants of Your land the tabernacle of Your peace, as it is written:
“I will grant peace in the Land; you will lie down and none shall make you afraid. And the sword will not pass through your land.”
May You, Almighty God, bless us all with security and tranquillity and grant a true, just and lasting peace in our Holy Land and across the entire world.
“May He who makes peace in high places, bring peace for us and for all the people of Israel.”
Sergeant Yedidya Azugi z”l
Staff Sergeant Yedidya Azugi, 22, from the town of Revava in Samaria, was killed in battle in Gaza. He served in the 101st Battalion of the Paratroopers Brigade.
He is survived by his parents, Dalia and Eliyahu, and five brothers and sisters. Sister Moriah Nedgar is a nurse in the orthopaedic department at Shaare Zedek
“He was loved by all those around him, with a broad smile and a big heart, a leader in the town among his friends. My heart breaks to see the family, the town, we will remember him, we will walk in the path of the heroes who fell while defending the people and the homeland. May his memory be a blessing." Yossi Dagan, Head of the Samaria Council
May his memory be a blessing.
Moriah Nedgar,
Sister Nurse, Orthopaedic Department at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Elad Fingerhut z”l
Elad Fingerhut, was killed in an anti-tank missile attack launched by Hezbolla from Lebanon on Yom Hatzmaut, 14th May 2024. Elad, was taking holiday supplies to the soldiers and was killed in a second explosion whilst he rushed to help soldiers who had been wounded.
“In moments of crisis, Elad’s immediate response was to assist his comrades, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to his fellow soldiers and to the defence of our nation,”
“I will miss the deep soul conversations we had together and the good friendship. It’s beyond being brothers. We had a very special bond. It’s a hard feeling that can’t be explained. Part of the family spoke to him hours before the incident, and some over the weekend. “He wasn’t afraid to be there.”
His bravery and dedication will forever be remembered by those who knew him.
May his memory be a blessing.
Dr Uriah Fingerhut
Doctor in the Emergency Department at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Staff Sergeant Yishai Fitusi z”l
My beloved son, I’m so proud of you. After your death, you remained on the ground for a long time because the fighting was tough and it was impossible to get you out, but I’m sure that in the moment of truth, the Almighty placed a pillar of cloud over you to protect you from the evil demons. You merited to sanctify God’s Name in public out of a sense of love for the Jewish people and the Land of Israel.
You were born in sanctity, and you relinquished your soul in sanctity. Now you are the Holy of Holies, along with the other righteous souls...
Yishaikush, with the same determination you fought with your bodies and sacrificed yourselves for the Jewish people, together, with no distinction between spiritual or political opinions, now is the time to stand up for what you believe in and assert your spiritual strength. Go to the Master of the Universe, be his closest messengers and scream out to Him, ‘Enough sorrow and enough fighting between us,’ and plead for the redemption of the Jewish people and for the revelation of the Messiah speedily in our days.
‘God gave and God took away. May the Name of God be blessed’.
May his memory be a blessing.
Inbal Fitusi, Mother Nurse in the Maternity Ward at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Staff Sergeant
Shachar Friedman z”l
Shachar [dawn], as his name suggests, was a light unto the world. And in his death, he merited giving the gift of sight to two other people, and skin to the wounded from the horrific war our people are now involved in.
In my eulogy, I wrote to Shachar, ‘My beloved brother, I’m the one who always protected you. I really didn’t want you to have to protect me. My handsome one, thank you for your courage, thank you for giving of yourself so that we could sleep peacefully. You’ve left us far too early and nothing will ever be the same again. But don’t worry, you’ll continue to be present in our lives. We’ll commemorate you and fulfil your will. What a huge part of my life you were, how proud I am. You left us as a hero.’
In your Will, you wrote, among other things, ‘The greatest trait a person can have is the ability to make someone else happy.’ My dearest brother, I was lucky to be among the numerous people you made happy. Rest in peace my awesome brother. We’ll continue to spread all the good and all the Torah you brought to the world. Love you forever, your big sister.
May his memory be a blessing.
Inbar Bash, Sister Haematology Research Coordinator at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Sergeant Major Yosef Malachi Gedaliah z”l
My dear and so beloved brother, the brain cannot conceive, the heart cannot accept, and the tears cannot stop flowing.
Only the people that knew you know what I’m talking about, you tzaddik, pure soul. You were killed while fighting and sacrificing yourself to save Jewish souls, while they were massacring old people, women and babies. I am unable to digest it and cannot see the day when I will be reconciled to the fact you are not here.
Such bravery, such courage, such humility, such professionalism... unbelievable. Simply an angel in the purest sense of the word. I was down there with you. We fought against the same vile creatures, but the Almighty decided He wants you by his side. I’m sorry for you brother, Yosef Malachi. You made my life so good. ‘And he is no longer because God took him.’
I will be comforted only at the Resurrection of the Dead. I refuse to leave you. Love you so much, to the bottom of my soul.
May his memory be a blessing.
Asher Gedaliah, Brother
Yael Gedaliah, Sister Nutritionist at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Sergeant Major Naftali Yona Gordon z”l
Naftali, you were a devoted family man. A perfect husband and wonderful father, with a clear sense of priorities, and a young and respected physiotherapist with professional talent, excellent relationship skills and patience for every patient.
You were destined for greatness in the institute you so loved to work in. You were a loving, caring son and a fun and funny brother. You were a great friend to your many friends; circles you gathered around you from all the different stations in your life. You were pleasant and easy-going, with inner calm and positive energy, making an impact everywhere you went.
Modest, intelligent, sweet Naftali, as a physiotherapist, you opened a makeshift clinic and treated your comrades in arms and others. During the fighting, you fought bravely with no hesitation, and you raised the morale of your fellow fighters. You died a hero’s death.
May his memory be a blessing.
Rivka Rosh (Gordon), Sister General Clinic and Children’s Wing Nurse at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Dvash Gordon, Sister Medical student and ER assistant at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Sergeant Birhanu Kassie z”l
“We give him love, and he will return love to us.” This is what Sergeant Birhanu Kassie z”l said to his teammates in the Givati Patrol when they received the “most difficult assignment in the IDF,” as described by one of his teammates who worked with him. As Birhanu promised, he would build and perfect the unit until it was the best it could be.
We had a dream of being in the Givati Patrol. He didn’t care about anything else. His teammates shared at the funeral that he was always smiling, a top-rate professional, dedicated and meticulous to the smallest detail.
His brother recounted that when he met Birhanu during a break, he asked him if this was what he wanted to do. “Exactly that,” Birhanu replied. When asked about the conditions in Gaza –how they slept and ate – Birhanu responded: “It doesn’t matter. What matters is that we achieve victory, and don’t worry, we will.”
The municipality of his hometown of Beit Shemesh said that from childhood, “he showed great potential and braveness. Being part of the military was a source of great pride for his family and his community.”
May his memory be a blessing.
Tova Zarihon, Sister Geriatrics at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
First Lieutenant Uri Mordechai Shani z”l
Just as we saw his courage in the yeshiva and his pure fear of Heaven and divine service, so we saw his courage in the army as a public servant, fighter and commander.
May his memory be a blessing.
Tzofia Zaguri, sister Paediatric dialysis nurse at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Sergeant Major Noam Slotki z”l
Sergeant Major
Yishai Slotki z”l
In their lives and in their deaths, they were not separated.
On the morning of that Shabbat, Noam and Yishai did not wait for their emergency call-up and didn’t ask any questions. They took their personal weapons and left southwards to fight and save lives. After a few days, we found out they’d fallen in battle, as heroes.
Giving was inbuilt in them. Seeing the good, putting others before yourself, first to step up for any task and always with a smile on their faces.
They inherited these values from their parents. Their father, Rabbi Shmuel, was also called up and continued to fulfil his military role even though he knew his sons were missing.
May their memories be a blessing.
Talia Slotki, Mother Pain Management Nurse in the Nursing Administration at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Staff Sergeant Benny Takeh z”l
Our Benny is a hero of Israel! In his last moments, he fought courageously to protect his comrades.
Our Benny was always smiling and funny. With his huge smile, he spread light and joy everywhere he went. He was a kid with the biggest heart. A kid who everyone knew and loved for his goodness.
Benny was a good friend, a friend who always helped and contributed. From the youth village he went to a pre-military academy with the aim of contributing as much as he could. That’s just who he was. A real star!
Our beloved, who everyone wanted to be with, who loved life and loved people. His friends became family. Our Benny, Binyamin, you left us alone three weeks before your light was extinguished, with a hole in our heart that nothing will fill. Look after us from Above and we promise we’ll never forget you down here. We love you and you’ll always be in our hearts and the hearts of your family and friends. May your soul rest in peace.
May his memory be a blessing.
Ziva Takeh, Mother Housekeeping at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Corporal Ofir Testa z”l
Ofir – a devoted, loving and beloved son. Always smiling and kind-hearted.
An idolized brother who was a wonderful example to his brothers and sisters.
A charming young man, a fearless soldier, a serious student who studied Torah with great passion.
Gave up his life to sanctify the Name of God, the Torah and the Land that were so precious to him.
“The book and the sword came down bound together from the heavens.” (Shai Agnon)
May his memory be a blessing.
Betty Testa, Mother Head Nurse in the Ophthalmology Clinic at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
Sergeant Major Ilay Tzeir z”l
Ilay, my little brother, I don’t want to say goodbye. I don’t want to continue without you. You were my soulmate with a pure and innocent smile that touched everyone. You were my soul, my blood. You were a light of goodness and purity, loved by everyone and dedicated to Israel.
Yael, Sister
We had a routine on sunny Saturdays where we would playfight on the grass. He always beat me, but only because I let him. Losing to him was an honour. Despite his strength, he couldn’t defeat our father. I’d give anything for another playful fight, another hug.
Shiloah, Brother
Ilayitsuk, how are you? How is your new world? Do they love you there too? They asked me to say farewell words, but how can I? Family trips without you, who will dance with Grandma? Who will help Dad build the treehouse you planned together? Who will make the delicious shakshuka and coffee during our trips? Who will sing passionately at the Sabbath table and joke with his brothers? You always asked how you could help. I will always miss your hugs and smiles. You made such an impact in your short life.
Yaffe Tzeir, Mother Accountant in the finance department at Shaare Zedek Medical Center
May his memory be a blessing.
Elon Weiss z”l
Elon Weiss, husband of Neta Weiss a midwife at Shaare Zedek, was a beloved educator who at the age of 49, volunteered to serve in the IDF despite being eligible for exemption from military service due to his age.
He devastatingly lost his life, during active duty in Gaza, killed by an explosive device detonated against his tank.
He fell after volunteering for reserve duty and went to war even though he was exempt. His whole life was a life of responsibility for the people of Israel out of a desire to give, contribute, and work for society and the country.
Elon inspired the lives of many people and leaves behind a family who loved him dearly.
May his memory be a blessing.

Lincoln David Abraham z”l
Lincoln grew up in London. From a young age he was always very keen on sports, especially tennis and football (a lifelong Liverpool supporter). As he got older he loved kickboxing, martial arts and racketball.
He was always surrounded by hundreds of friends that referred to him as an “old soul” wiser than his years - always being the friend they would come to for advice. He had the same positive impact on people in the work place, building respect and relationships to set up his own company at a young age, fulfilling his lifelong dream of working in the city.
The last Yom Kippur of his life was spent on security duty for CST. He was incredibly proud when every member of the community, including the ultra-Orthodox men, nodded their heads in appreciation of his volunteering.
Lincoln was very proud of being Jewish and had a great love of Israel, in particular Jerusalem, returning many times with friends. He had his bar-mitzvah at the Western Wall, celebrating with family including the ones living in Israel who actually took the service. He adored it and never forgot the experience of bringing the Sefer Torah out of the Kotel caves and singing his Torah portion. Whenever he returned to Israel he would always visit the Wall and recite his bar-mitzvah portion.
Lincoln’s mother Helen has grown up with Shaare Zedek her whole life. Her grandmother, great-aunts and her mother regularly donated to the hospital. She grew up with the Shaare Zedek calendar at home and continues the longstanding family tradition of supporting the hospital.
When Helen’s father passed away her mother dedicated a plaque to her husband, parents and aunts, which Helen and Lincoln later visited.
Lincoln loved Thailand and visited many times. He was there with friends when the tsunami hit on Boxing Day 2004 and was the only one who didn’t survive. His friends have since raised funds to honour his name for several charities including Shaare Zedek.
In tribute to her son, Helen funded the Lincoln David Abraham Paediatric Educational Institute and the Lincoln David Abraham Well Baby Nursery Complex at Shaare Zedek. Helen chose Shaare Zedek “to honour Lincoln’s name and give him a legacy that would be there forever, and allow my son’s name to live on”. Thousands of children and babies now benefit from Lincoln’s departments each year.

Hannah Ackerman z”l –The House Mother of Shaare Zedek
My late parents, together with me, left Germany for Palestine in 1936.
We settled in Jerusalem after being refused a promise made, to be accepted as members of a settlement called Gedera, where a law had just then been passed to exclude children, and to only accept adults in the future.
Following a turbulent period of adjustment; my mother found employment at the Shaare Zedek hospital on Jaffa Street where she was affectionately known by all as ‘The House Mother’, a job that she held until the day she died.
She knew and had the greatest respect for the Hospital’s founder – Dr Wallach and was also close to Head Nurse Schwester Selma, a formidable lady, great nurse with a heart of gold.
My mother passed away before the hospital’s move to its beautiful new buildings; and as she slipped away Selma was with her, holding her hand all night, as I sadly arrived from London, several hours too late.
My mum’s photograph, leaning on one of the hospital’s ambulances, is displayed in the entrance of the Medical Centre, in Jerusalem.

Hyman Cohen z”l
My father, Hyman Cohen, was born in Hackney, London in September 1921. His father was born in England of Russian parents, his mother in Poland. Dad attended Hackney Downs School but although a bright student left school early, aged 15, to work in his father’s furrier business, a move which cost his father a £5 fine.
In 1939, shortly before the outbreak of the Second World War and not yet quite 18, he sailed alone to New York to visit the World Fair and earn his keep working for his uncle, a successful luxury furrier.
In September 1940, his brother and mother were evacuated to Canada where Hyman joined them, starting work as a storekeeper in the pharmacy at the Jewish General Hospital. He progressed in the pharmacy but was soon enlisted in the Canadian Royal Air Force where he qualified as a pilot; his request to transfer to the RAF in the UK was refused.
Hyman developed a lifelong interest in flying and synoptic charts, avidly studying The Times weather reports almost up until the day he died always considering that he knew better how to interpret them. He hoped to continue a flying career
after the war, but learning that his father was ill, returned to London to help sort out his father’s business affairs.
Invited to a party by his father’s friend David Krieger, he met David’s daughter, Joan. They were married in October 1947, setting up home in Hampstead Garden Suburb in North London. It was in this area that my brother and I were born, and my parents spent the rest of their seventy-one years of married life together.
Dad joined his father-in-law’s textile business, changing his surname from Cohen to Calvert because of the antisemitism he encountered in business. He continued to run the company until 1988 when it closed just two years short of the 100th anniversary of its founding.
My mother, to whom Dad was devoted, passed away in 2019 but, despite the restraints of Covid, 25 friends and family were able to hold a celebration tea party with him on his 100th birthday in 2021.

My father was a man of his word, reliable, upstanding, clever and knowledgeable. He was meticulous, well organised and a committed father.
The difficulties encountered when my brother became mentally ill led him, with a number of others with a similar experience, to set up JAMI, the Jewish Association for the Mentally Ill. This thriving charity is now part of Jewish Care.
Saying Yahrzeit was important to him. He always performed Yahrzeit for his and my mother’s parents and in more recent years, lit memorial candles for my mother and then for his younger brother, Sidney.
As Dad’s memory began to fail in extreme old age, he was almost obsessive in checking that there were sufficient Memorial candles for him to be able to continue this duty. I think it was because this was the one important thing that he could still do when so many other aspects of his life had to be managed by carers or family members.
His last candle was, sadly, just a fortnight before he died, for my brother Brian, his elder son. Dad passed away, just 3 months short of his 102nd birthday in June 2023.
In his Will, my father left a sum to be given to charity. One beneficiary was Shaare Zedek, a charity close to his heart. When I was first fortunate to be earning a reasonable salary and said to my father that I wanted to donate a monthly amount to a few charities, he “insisted” that one of them was Shaare Zedek. Was it fate to discover after his death that Shaare Zedek have a Yahrzeit programme?
I have drawn considerable comfort that, in return for the donation, Yahrzeit will be said at the hospital each year, not just for my father, but for all the family members who Dad remembered in this way. And this will continue after I die, the last in my family line. Jeffrey Calvert, Son
Dr Daphna Doron z”l
Deputy Medical Director for Quality Control and Patient Safety.
Dr Doron joined Shaare Zedek at the height of the Covid pandemic, when the hospital faced the challenge to continue to operate our overall medical activities with professionalism and safety, while also confronting the growing difficulties associated with Corona care.
Upon joining Shaare Zedek she said, “I immediately had the sense that I was joining an elite team of medical professionals that was prepared to deal with the massive challenge facing our national and global healthcare community.”
During her time at Shaare Zedek, Dr Doron advanced the hospital’s quality control and patient safety systems for the benefit of patients and staff alike.
Until her very last days, she was actively involved in preparing the hospital for a large-scale operational review by Israel’s Ministry of Health that took place just last week. It was in large-part due to her dedication and involvement that the hospital earned high marks in the review.
A specialist in paediatric medicine, Dr Doron leaves behind a husband and three children.
Shaare Zedek’s Director General Prof. Ofer Merin eulogized her saying, “Daphna Doron taught us by remarkable example what is dedication and caring for others. Despite her illness, she continued to work tirelessly – and always with a smile and compassion. We feel deeply blessed to have had the chance to work alongside her and be the beneficiaries of this kind and caring approach to medical professionalism that she also worked to share with everyone she encountered. On behalf of the entire Shaare Zedek family I express my deep and sincere condolences to the Doron family.”

Evelyn Shamash (née Frymerman) z”l
My mother, Evelyn Shamash, passed away on Friday, May 10, 2024, at the age of 98. She was born in Vienna in July 1925. In 1939, she left Vienna with her parents after my grandfather was arrested during Kristallnacht and spent three months in Dachau Concentration Camp. My grandmother worked very hard to get him out and secured a visa for England.
My mother had an older sister named Mimi who died of cancer at age nine. My mother was about seven when Mimi died, and it upset her very much. This happened in Vienna before my mother moved to the UK. Sadly, many of my mother’s relatives could not escape and were killed in the Holocaust.
My mother often told me that life was hard when she arrived in England. Her father was sent to Australia as an enemy alien, but he eventually returned to the UK and joined the British Army. The army instructed him to change his surname in case he was captured by the German army, and that’s when my mother became Evelyn Fernley.
My mother and father married in 1955. She met my father at the Graduates. My father’s parents were from Iraq, although my father was born in Manchester. I was born in 1957.
My mother became a teacher and taught German at Nonsuch Grammar School from 1953 to 1990. She didn’t write her life story down, so I can only share what I remember.
My father died in 2006. The following year, my mother surprised me with a growing interest in Israel. We hadn’t been there for over 20 years, but we went on JNF legacy missions in 2007 and 2010.
In 2010 my mother was very ill in England but decided that she still wanted to go on the Legacy Mission to Israel.
We were at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem and my mother was unwell. She thought it was just a trapped nerve. A barman at the museum noticed she was ill and called a doctor friend, who advised him to call an ambulance.

The ambulance took her to Shaare Zedek Medical Center, where she was diagnosed with a heart attack and received prompt treatment. We do not know when her heart first started to suffer. She spent about a week there and was then transferred to a nursing home until she could go home, escorted by a doctor.
We believe that if my mother had stayed in London, she wouldn’t have received such excellent treatment and might have died in 2010. Instead, she lived another 14 years.
With money she inherited, my mother decided to help build a school in the Negev. As a retired teacher, she wanted to give students a good learning environment.
My mother had a very happy and fulfilling life.
I will never forget my mother.

Sybil Vyner z”l
Our dear aunt Sybil Vyner was born in Newcastle-Upon Tyne on 24 October 1923 and passed away in 2022 at the grand old age of 98. She was the oldest child of Annie and David Vyner also of Newcastle Upon Tyne.
As a child in the 1920s she witnessed King Edward VIII opening the Tyne Bridge and attended the then ‘brand new’ Heaton Manor School. The second world war began while she was still at school and she was evacuated to the Lake District for a short time before returning home and beginning training as a teacher.
She was a teacher throughout her whole working life teaching French, which she spoke fluently, and then mathematics. She worked at several different schools beginning at Delamere Forest school and retiring at the age of 56 from the role of head of sixth form at a large inner city school in London.
She was very proud of the fact that at the age of 96 she had been retired longer than she had worked!
Sybil as an avid correspondent, diary writer and reader. Most noticeably was that as a child she began corresponding with a young American penpal, Betty-Jane Roberts, and they continued corresponding until Betty passed away in 2014.
She certainly made the most of her retirement, travelling extensively in the UK and overseas, contributing to many charities and volunteering with groups such as the Tyne Sound Talking News. She was a skilful knitter and crocheter and even as her mobility and eyesight deteriorated in old age she continued to crotchet baby blankets for the charity Changing Lives and knitting berets for army recruits in Israel.
Sybil’s faith was always very important to her. She also loved to cook and entertain so as a family we all have very happy memories of celebrations and family parties at her house.
Auntie Sybil was just a brilliant aunt. She was very generous, funny, kind and sensible, and all in all an excellent role model to us all – we miss her every day. Her memory is a blessing and inspires us to continue her legacy of love and kindness.

Jose Weinberg z”l
This is in memory of my very dear last cousin, Jose, with whom I spent many an hour talking, laughing and appreciating the Goon Show.
Jose and her husband Monty made Aliyah many moons ago and lived in Carmel where they made their lives together for all their years.
They brought up their children there; settled welling the community after leaving their Ulpan; were stalwarts of the synagogue, founded a book group, a film club, led walks and lived life to the full. Their home was always open to visitors - on long or short stays. Sadly Monty died some years before Jose, she moved to be near her daughter in Carmel, continued her activities until age crept up on her and she died last Summer.
She will always be remembered for her zest for life, her generosity of spirit and we shall miss her always.

Nathanel Young z”l
Lone Soldier from United Kingdom
My heroic little brother, Nathanel, affectionately known as DJ to his friends and comrades, left a lasting impression on everyone who knew him during his short time in this world.
Every memory of Nathanel revolves around his kindness, selflessness, loyalty, and his ability to bring smiles to people’s faces, always prioritizing his friends, even traveling miles to support those he loved. Above all, he found time every single day to check in on our parents and his beloved dog Oreo, embodying the highest level of ‘Kibud Av Ve Em’ (honouring one’s parents), a trait I deeply admire and strive to continue in his honour.
Despite an age gap of 18 years, we were very close. Over the past 20 precious years, I witnessed Nathanel evolve from a mischievous young boy into a strong, brave, and kind national hero of Israel. I cherished seeing his passions for music, dogs, fashion, sports, and Israel grow. As he matured, he offered me fashion advice while I shared guidance on life, relationships, career
choices, and his decision to relocate to Israel.
Throughout those years, Nathanel had a dream of serving in the IDF to defend Israel. Two years ago, old enough to make the move independently, he left behind his beloved dog, DJ equipment, and shoe collection to join the IDF. Arriving in Israel with a beaming smile and unwavering determination, he pursued his passions, dog-sitting, working out on the beach, landing a DJ role at one of Tel Aviv’s renowned clubs, and, most significantly, serving in Golani Unit 13 as a lone soldier. He found true happiness in Israel and it was contagious.
Once in Israel, Nathanel instantly made lots of friends – becoming the most popular guy wherever he went – in ‘Machal’, ‘Michve Alon’, Golani and of course in Tel Aviv Nightclubs like Shalvata. He learned to speak Hebrew perfectly as if he was a native!
As a soldier with very few days off, he always made time and effort to visit his nieces. He would come through the door with a huge smile, lifting them up on his shoulders,

...continued from previous page
bringing gifts and surprises.
The last time we saw Nathanel was on October 1st during Sukkot – he had one day off and came to a tiyul with my kids at ‘Maze and Corn’. Although my daughters Lielle and Millie only knew him for a few short years, these memories will last forever and keep us positive.
That was Nathanel – bringing smiles and joy to everyone, whether through his infectious smile, music, jokes, or generosity, not just for his nieces but for his friends as well.
On the fateful morning of 7 October, Nathanel was stationed at Yiftach base near kibbutz Zikim.
At around 6:30am, there were reports of a female soldier being in danger at the Shin Gimmel by the entrance of the base. Nathanel and seven other soldiers sprang into action and rushed to rescue her.
They were ambushed by Hamas terrorists who had infiltrated, and a battle ensued, where sadly Nathanel was killed along
with some of his comrades. Despite being outnumbered, that battle at the entrance to the base lasted around an hour. Thanks to Nathanel and his comrades’ bravery, the lives of many soldiers on the base were saved. And they prevented kibbutz Zikkim from being infiltrated.
Nathanel’s death was one of the first reported in the media and he was honoured at Har Hertzl in Jerusalem with a full military funeral. Despite the threat of sirens and rockets, thousands of people from all backgrounds and places came to pay their respects to this young lone soldier who had left everything behind in London to come and volunteer in the IDF to protect our beautiful country.
Since Nathanel fell defending Israel, three new nieces and one new nephew have been born, and we will continue to share happy stories of Nathanel with them.
I hope we can all use these stories to inspire us to treat each other like Nathanel treated others and honour our parents how Natanel honoured his.
I still can’t believe my brother is gone, but he died happy and living his dream.

The Children of Izieu –80 Years On
High up in the Jura mountains, in what was then Vichy France, there was a Jewish orphanage in the village of Izieu which was home to some 45 children ranging in age from 17 down to 4 years. This was their happy place, their safe haven but eventually, in the spring of 1944, their lives were shattered when they were all betrayed to the Nazis and deported to Auschwitz never to be heard of again. Here are their names and ages:
Sami Adelsheimer – 5
Hans Ament – 10
Nina Aronowitz – 12
Max-Marcel & Jean-Paul Balsam – 12 & 10
Esther, Elie & Jacob
Benassayag – 12, 10 & 8
Jacques, Richard & Jean-
Claude Benguigui – 12, 7 & 5
Barouk-Raoul Bentitou – 12
Majer & Albert Bulka – 13 & 4
Lucienne Friedler – 5
Egon Gamiel – 9
Maurice & Liliane Gerenstein – 13 & 11
Henri-Chaim & Joseph Goldberg – 13 & 12
Mina & Claudine
Halaunbrenner – 8 & 5
Georges Halpern – 8
Arnold Hirsch – 17
Isidore Kargeman – 10
Renate & Liane Krochmal – 8 & 6
Max Leiner – 8
Claude Levan-Reifman – 10
Fritz Lobmann – 15
Alice Jacqueline Luzgart – 10
Paula & Marcel Mermelstein – 10 & 7
Theodore Reis – 16
Gilles Sadowski – 8
Martha & Senta Spiegel – 10 & 9
Sigmund Springer – 8
Sarah Szulklaper – 11
Max & Herman Tetelbaum – 12 & 10
Charles Weltner – 9
Otto Wertheimer – 12
Emile Zuckerberg – 5
This whole episode came to light in 1987 at the trial in Lyons, of the notorious Klaus Barbie who was the head of the Gestapo in that area. It is unutterably sad to contemplate all that lost potential and the generations which would have flowed from those children. After all, they were already orphans with no-one to mourn their passing. So, it behoves us to remember them and ensure that the light of their countenance continues to shine down the years, illuminating our lives with their innocence and goodness.
The tragic fate of the Children of Izieu is also a timely pointer, if ever one was needed, to the plight of the hostages still in Gaza. We pray for them every day and hope that they may be speedily returned to their loved ones.
