1We decided to build "Nimrod's Mountain Viewpoint"
a memorial park, a lookout over the
breath-taking Galilee and Golan views and a point
of departure to travelers in Rosh Pina, because
of Nimrod's great love for Rosh Pina and its
natural beauty.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.
2When 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.
3Nimrod 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.
4Nimrod'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.
5- "Nimrod's Mountain Viewpoint",
- a green spot with water 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.

6The building of the Mountain Viewpoint, 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 sum of
150,000. We have so far managed to raise 25,000
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. The organization of the Pioneers
National Restoration Site of Rosh Pina is a
recognized (non profit) organization and is fully
tax deductible. Iris and Hezi Segev, Rosh Pina

8 April 15, 2007 Dear Sirs, These days we
are helping to build a memorial mountain
viewpoint, in memory of Nimrod Segev. The
viewpoint would be placed in an opened public
area, in the upper part of the national site in
Rosh Pina, and would become a part of the touring
plan of the site. It is called "Mitzpe
Nimrod". Donations would be deposited in the
national restoration site's bank account, and
transferred to "Mitzpe Nimrod" special program. A
special team has been selected for supervising
these deposits. "Mitzpe Nimrod" is built with
the complete support of the Organization and the
local municipality and under the supervision of
the Architecture Committee consulting to the
National Site Organization. Details of
