The heartbreaking levaya of Chaim Sarchi, a young father from Johannesburg who was a dedicated Hatzalah member, included a moving tribute from his colleagues, who issued one final Hatzalah call for him.
Chaim was a dedicated community member, an incredible and loving father to his 2 boys. Friends and family remembered him as the epitome of pure humility in every sense of the word.
He is survived by his wife Liat and two young sons Levi and Idan, as well as his parents Michael and Rebecca Sarchi and siblings Moshe, Mendy, Monnis, Elki, and Shevi.
A huge crowd attended Chaim’s levaya today in Johannesburg, South Africa. He was escorted on his final journey by a Hatzalah entourage, the organization he selflessly served.
Hatzalah also paid a moving tribute to their fellow member, issuing a radio call to Chaim, thanking him for his service and commitment.
“Gone but not forgotten, your mission is now complete,” they announced. “You are now off duty, your mission is complete. We have the watch from here.”
600 people joined a hachlatos group for him when he was sick. It’s being continued now in his zchus. https://chat.whatsapp.com/IfNKfyh2YIn1mxelMnqq2p
