Life and Loss: A Sister's Journey

In this episode, Benji and Avi had the privilege of sitting down with Raanana’s own Eli Ziering. Eli's brother, Aryeh Ziering of blessed memory, was killed in action on October 7th near Kibbutz Zikim in Israel's South. Aryeh was a major in the IDF's elite Oketz unit, and an all-around wonderful person whom we knew and loved. Eli wanted to share what her experience of becoming a bereaved sibling has been like. The grief, the pain, and even finding the humor through it all.

It's a poignant perspective that is all her own and we’re sure it will touch your heart as it did ours.

Special thank you to IDF lone soldiers Shlomo Warren, Maya Behiri, Emmauelle Stern, and Danielle Dror from the Gar'in Tzabar program for sharing the music at the end of the episode.
