Sahar Baruch, Amiram Cooper fell asleep after more than two years of war in Gaza

“You were at the beginning of your life, and the thought of you breaking our hearts into a million pieces,” said Sahar Buruch Rebecca Manor.

Hulusheni Sawa Sahar Baruch and Amiram Cooper were settled in Southern Israel on Sunday after their church was restored last week.

The bodies of Baruch and Cooper were returned on Thursday. On Sunday morning, Cooper was buried at Kibbutz NIR OZ Cemetery.

“Dad, I’m so sorry, I’m sorry we couldn’t bring you back alive, I’m sorry you had to stay there for so long,” Cooper’s daughter, Ravit Nohomovitz, said.

“Surely there is something comforting, something that calms the heart, something that brings out the deepest day in our history. We are held by our families.

Rosem Cooper said she loved her father’s dedication to the Kibbutz.

“You and Mom are always devoted to NIR OZ and have never left your home, even during the difficult days under Rocket Saturday when you and Mom were released back to our family after knowing that this happened,” he added.

“Today we lay you to rest by the side of your Comrades in Mission and on the road. The last grave in a line of terrible cemeteries from this beloved land of ours. The grave of our beloved community, a community that can now look to rebuilding and rebuilding.”

Later on Sunday afternoon, Baruch was buried at the Kibbutz Beeri cemetery. He was buried next to his brother, Idan Baruch.

Tami Baruch, Shahar’s mother, said she wished her son had been able to live more of his life before he was killed.

“You could be held for a very long time, and it became part of your identity,” she said. “Before that, he had many other identities, like a chess player, a chess player, a smart student, an electrical engineer that he wanted to be, a metal engineer that he wanted to be, but he couldn’t be.

“We have many memories, but not enough together. I am very sad that we will not create new memories together, that many experiences that may not live.”

“Sahari, that’s it, he’s here, although not as we hoped, but he’s here without us,” said his aunt, Rebecca Manor.

“Today, we will bury you in the land of Bereri next to Idan, my dear brother, who knew for a long time that he would have been alive all the time, and even that time that he could not finish, and, even that time that he could not finish, and, even that humble thing.”

He says: “You were at the beginning of your life, and the thought of you breaking our hearts is worth a million dollars,” he added. “Sahari, look over us more, and send our love to Idan, to my grandmother, and to the many people who were and are not with us, and who are greatly missed.”

On the day of this identification, Kibbutz NIR OZ, which was founded by Coner, that the community can begin to heal.

“Seven hundred and fifty-five days after the massacre, no hostages from Kibbutz NIR oz remain in the exile of Hamas,” the statement issued by Kibbutz NIR OZ following the identification of Cooper and Baruch is still being read.

“Now, with the return of the last shipment from the Kibbutz, we can begin to process, succeed, and mourn the 65 loved ones who will never return.” The statement continued. “Besides our sad closure, there are still 11 families waiting for their loved ones. We will continue to work with them to bring everyone back, until the last shipment.”
