Nimrod was the fourth generation of his family to be born and raised in the northern settlement; he loved the place and was tied to it with every cord of his soul.

When he came to visit on weekends, with his beloved wife Iris and his young son Omer, when water was streaming in its wadi, in the village, just a few meters away from home – he'd stop the car, look at the view and listen to the water flowing. He'd drive the short way home at the lowest speed to inhale slowly and thoroughly the ambience of the place where he grew up.

Nimrod was killed while protecting his village, his parents' home, the landscape he loved so much, after he was called by a special command on reserve duty. An anti-tank missile hit his tank, which was providing cover to bulldozers that paved a new route near the Lebanese village of Eitah ah - Shaab.

Nimrod and his tank crewmembers were all killed.

Nimrod's death came as a huge blow to his workmates as well. He worked for Microsoft Corporation and received many awards for his contribution to the company. His personal charm, intelligence and goodness left an impression on everyone who spent time with him, even if for a few minutes only. However, as well as being a high-tech professional, he was drawn to the simple, basic life; to nature.

"Nimrod Lookout", a green spot with water Views as seen from the viewpoint flowing through, facing the landscapes of the Hula valley, the Golan Heights and mount Hermon, will be built in the Pioneers National Restoration Site in old Rosh Pina. Being built on an archeological ground, it will be done under supervision of the antiquities authority of the government. It would embody both the spirit of Nimrod and the surrounding area.

The building of the lookout, which would be an upgrade of the Pioneers National Restoration Site of Rosh Pina*, as it would also be a starting point to guided tours which take place in the site, will cost a lot of money.

We have so far managed to raise most of the cost for the building of "Nimrod Mountain Viewpoint", a viewpoint that would preserve Nimrod's magical innocence and his love for humanity and nature, and would combine a pleasant design, outstanding views, peacefulness and flowing water as the symbol of the continuation of life. Every donation would be gratefully received and appreciated.
