אהבה עמוקה לעלומים וכל תושביה. עוקב על מה שמתרחש בגעגועים, בחרדות ובתקוות. מי יתן ששומר ישראל ישמור עליכם בשלום. מייק יופסון, מתנדב לשעבר מניו יורק.

Hi Esther, I was a volunteer on Alumim 35 years ago for about six months, shortly after I completed high school in New York and before returning to the US at my parents' behest to start university. Of course I have been following the painful news with worry for almost the past two weeks and constantly googling stories about Alumim in English and Hebrew, and while I was relieved that Alumim was spared the worst and didn't fare as badly as your neighbors in places like Be'eri and Kefar Azza, I am still pained by the terrible trauma you all went through and the loss of the young soldier, Nitay Amar, and all the Thai and Nepalese workers. Almost immediately after the chag ended, I saw the news stories in Daily Mail and Guardian that you were featured in, and I immediately thought you must be Stevie Marcus's wife. I used to work with him. I think at that time he was still single, but perhaps engaged to you (1988-1989?). I don't think I rememeber you from that time, though. I read the Makor Rishon article and it mentions Rafi Babyan, who seemed to play a key a role in the regional defense and alerted the Kitat Konnenut, and as I recall he was the "sadran avodah" in 1988-89, or was he in charge of the refet? I don't think many (if any) people on Alumim remember me, but I'm not exaggerating when I state that for over three decades barely a day passes when I don't think about my brief time there, it was a very important period in my life. I last visited around 2000 or 2001 and spent a weekend in the guest house and a shabbat with the Zerrubavelis, my former משפחה מאמצת. Despite my long absence from Alumim and not keeping in touch and my infrequent visits to Israel (I was last there in 2014), I really always reflect on Alumim and the people I know there, especially when I hear of the rockets, but I have not been in touch except for that one visit I made about 23 years ago. From what I understand everyone has been evacuated, per Wikipedia it says people from Alumim are being housed temporarily in Netanya? I want to help Alumim in some way, although your neighboirs might need more help, what can I do? I was thinking of just paying for a weekend in the guesthouse (even if I am not actually staying there) and encouraging other people I know to do the same; I see that the silo was destoryed and the dairy equipment was destroyed. I also keep thinking of the avocado orchards, and the fact that I used to work in them (with Meir'ke and Yos'ke) and that was where one of the main firefights with the terrorist invaders took place. בחסדי השם, while it appears that most of the people from my old erstwhile home are safe, but it's hard to be happy when your neighbors have suffered so much, and you've lost your workers (Who will help their families in Thailand and Nepal?) and the young soldier, Nitay, HY"D. Please know that I am thinking of Alumim and hope to visit soon and that you and your neighbors come back stronger than before and I pray the hostages come home safely and the men and women of TZAHAL can do their job with minimal harm to themselves. --Mike J. from Staten Island/Brooklyn
