9 Months After by the Sister of Segev Schwartz HY”D
I want to share that exactly nine months after Segev’s 21st birthday, which we celebrated for the first time without him, a month after he was killed
On the Black Sabbath, in the battle of Sufa. Nine months of pain, an abysmal pain
After my little brother fell.
These were also 9 months in which I created life
New, a gift from heaven.
At his bris, we brought my son into Abraham’s covenant, and we named him Gil – an acronym for “Hero of Israel forever.” (Gibor Yisrael L’ad)
Third generation in the Beit Shean Valley and fourth generation of Kibbutz Mesilot.
In memory of my brother, Sergeant Segev Schwartz HY”D
