Ella Hamuy, 26: Future nursing student filled with ‘giving and love’
Fatally injured by Hamas at the Supernova music festival on October 7, succumbed to her wounds on November 1
After sustaining severe injuries from Hamas at the Supernova music festival massacre on October 7, Ella Hamuy, 26, succumbed to her wounds a month later at Tel Aviv’s Ichilov Hospital on November 1.
A resident of Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak, Hamuy worked with children on the kibbutz and was supposed to begin training to be a nurse this year.
She is survived by her parents, Nissim Hamuy and Hadas Makias.
“My love, I had the privilege of being your mother for 26 years,” wrote her mother, Hadas Makias. “A girl who seeks justice, a girl of giving and of love. I have no doubt you are in heaven now.”
When she was in third grade, Hamuy moved to Nir Yitzhak with her mother, who joined the kibbutz as the spouse of its late security coordinator, Shauli Duani.
“Ella, we will forever love and miss your inner and outer beauty, your kindness and your friendship,” wrote the Kibbutz Nir Yitzhak community on its Facebook page.
“She always had a smile on her face and she took life easy,” said her friends, who went unnamed, to Ynet. “She loved to travel, spend time with friends and to be with her peace and humility that characterized her. She was very loved and will be greatly missed in our social fabric.”
Her funeral was held on November 1, the day of her death, at the Moshav Beit Arif cemetery.
