Amitzur Dubiner z.l.

It is difficult and bitter to think of, and even more difficult to put into writing, words about Amitzur, who passed away at a young age and left behind a wife, two children, an extended family and many friends and acquaintances mourning him.

As a scion of a nationalist family, Amitzur was drawn to the Beitar[33] Group from the very beginning of his youth in the Land; he was educated in the spirit of the movement and he in turn educated hundreds of young people in its bosom.

He endeavored to link his young life with a practical tie to the landscape of our homeland. He was drawn to agricultural studies, and as a matter of course this is what brought him to the Weizmann Agricultural School. He studied diligently and was one of its first graduates.

At the graduation party of the school, which was located in the heart of the Arava[34], he was asked by Kaddish Luz—who in those days was serving as the Minister of Agriculture, and now for many years has been serving as chairman of the Knesset—how it came to be that a city boy like him had decided to come there, to continue his studies in this desolate place. Amitzur's reply, conscientious and to the point, was:

“My forefathers were also the first to settle on the arable fields of Petah Tikva, and it appears that this spirit of being the first is in my blood as well.”

Amitzur's acquaintances and friends knew him as a cheerful sociable person, who brought joy to the people around him. Justice and integrity were particularly embedded in his character.

After Amitzur completed his service in the Israeli army as an officer, he went to live in various border settlements, and eventually he settled in Kfar-Arif, where he set up his farm and home.

His fruitful life ended while he was still young.

With love and much grief in their hearts, his parents, wife Rachel, son Avi, daughter Orit, brother Yosef and family, sister Penina and family, will all carry his unforgettable memory.

It is difficult to think of, and even more to write about Amitzur, who departed from us in his youth, at the tender age of only 28. He left behind a wife, two children, an extended family, and many friends and acquaintances who mourn him.

As a scion of a nationalist family, Amitzur was attracted to the Beitar Group from a very young age. He clung to its ideas, was educated and educated others—hundreds of young people—in the bosom of the movement that he believed in with all his heart.

His attraction to agriculture brought him as a matter of course to the Weizmann Agriculture School, and Amitzur was one of its first graduates.

In the graduation party of the school, which was located in the heart of the Arava, he was asked by Mr. Kaddish Luz—now the Knesset Chairman, but then the Agriculture Minister—what made him, as a city boy, come to this desolate place to continue his studies. His spontaneous answer was that his forefathers were the first to settle on the arable fields of Petah Tikva, and this spirit of being the first was apparently in his blood.

And indeed his family was one of the oldest, extended and well known in Petah Tikva and throughout the entire Land, and Amitzur was faithfully following in its path.

His acquaintances and friends knew him as a cheerful, sociable person, who brought joy to the people around him. In particular he pursued and fought for justice and integrity, characteristics embedded in him.

After he completed his army service with the rank of officer, he went to live in various border settlements, whether Mevo'ot Beitar, Amatzya or Yad Arba'a Asar; and eventually he moved to Kfar Arif, where he settled down and set up his farm and home.

His friends and acquaintances will certainly not be able to forget him. They will always picture him as young, cheerful and proud, as befits a member of the national movement.

With Great Pain We Weep for the Death of

 
Shmuel (Sam) Glezer

Our glorious crown has fallen.
He died in New York in the year 1970
At the age of 72

 

A true man of the people, full of wisdom of life, with deep vision and a generous heart to take up and address various human problems. He was a dedicated associate and a good friend, who gave up much time and energy to help out wherever he could. All those who were in his presence, and those who were closely associated with him, especially the three families to whom he served as a father, were left orphaned.

A pity for the loss!

 

In deep sorrow:
His wife, Mina Glezer
His sister Gittel and her son Lipa Polyakevitch, New York
His nephew Asher Glezer with his wife and children Tel Aviv, Israel
