Eden Moshe, 27: Electrical engineering student and devoted soccer fan
Murdered by Hamas terrorists at the Supernova music festival on Oct. 7
Eden David Moshe, 27, of Holon, was murdered by Hamas terrorists at the Supernova music festival on October 7.
Eden attended the rave with a group of four childhood friends — his girlfriend, Tamar Gutman, Ben Binyamin Cohen, Dor Taar and Yiftah Twig — and all five were slain that day in the onslaught.
The five friends were buried side by side in the Gezer Regional Cemetery outside Modiin. Eden is survived by his parents, Vera and Boaz Moshe, and his five siblings: Sivan, Natali, Eliran, Daniel and Shalev.
Born in Jerusalem, Eden grew up in Beit Hashmonai, next to Ramle, studying in local schools and focusing on physics and chemistry classes during high school. After graduating, he enlisted in the IDF for his mandatory service as a combat soldier in the Artillery Corps. After his release, he took a long trip to South America with a group of friends.
He then enrolled in the Holon Institute of Technology, where he was studying electrical engineering. His loved ones said Eden was a devoted fan of the Manchester United soccer team — even traveling around the world to watch them play — loved hanging out with his family, especially his nephews, loved to dance and was always ready to help out his friends. His mother said he loved her cooking, in particular her Moroccan spicy fish, the couscous she made and her strawberry cake.
His sister Natali wrote on Facebook, “Eden my beloved brother — you are missed so much, every day that passes is harder. Your pure soul will always accompany us, the longing grows from day to day. We will forever be six [siblings]!! Keep on dancing up there with your friends. Forever, my brother, I’ll remember you always.”
Eden’s brother Daniel wrote online that they were separated only “by a year and a half, you were basically my twin brother. All of the things we went through together I will treasure in my heart — and there were many. You were always there to defend me and to protect me. You will be missed every moment in every place, you were always by my side and that’s how it will remain forever.”
In a memorial video, his mother, Vera, said Eden “was a perfect child. He never said ‘no’ to me or to his father. It wasn’t in his vocabulary. He was an excellent student, in school, they always wanted to skip him ahead a grade, he was a genius.”
He was very affectionate, she said, “When he came home from school he would kiss me, come into our room, hug and kiss all the time… He had a unique love for me.”
