An exciting event at the funeral of Shmuel Omni Zl, husband of Miri Aloni Their son, the rapper Jeremy Omni, Who cut from his parents as early as 20 years ago, came to honor his father on his final journey. As you may recall, in many interviews, Aloni mentioned the pain caused to her by the absence of her son from her life and even told Liora that every year she makes sure to write him a greeting on Facebook for his birthday. Even when Aloni underwent amputation, Omni Jr. did not stand by his mother’s bed. Omni, or as he calls himself in the title “Jeremiah”, is an actor you have probably seen in a number of TV series, theater or film shows and also a musician who specializes in rap.
Jeremiah, exciting. Did you say Kaddish?
“I have arrived and there is no response beyond that.”
Miri, did you convince him to come? Now will you renew the connection between you?
“On Sunday this week, we brought my beloved Shmulik Omni for burial in the Pardes Haim cemetery in Kfar Saba. I purchased a double grave in the ground and when Yomi Atman came over it and so we would stay together forever. I had such a hard time seeing the man of my life thrown into the pit, I shouted at him. Brigadier General Tzuri Sagi and Navot Sharet arrived, who served with him in the paratroopers under the command of Arik Sharon and Meir Harzion. He was praised by Adv. Koren sang ‘My home in front of Golan’, I sang an American country song, ‘stand by your man’, accompanied by pianist Maxim Svetlov, and then our young son Yosef asked to say an eulogy and spoke straight from the heart. It was most moving when Yosef and Lahav, Shmulik’s son from his first marriage, read together the Kaddish about their father, the well-known cantor Yitzhak Nevo praying “To the Merciful One.”
“It was only at the end of the funeral that my agent Dana Litvin told me: ‘Do you know that Shirmi is here?’ There was no limit to my excitement. Although he broke up with us over 20 years ago, he attended the funeral of his father Molido, with his friend and personal manager, Sagi Dahan. I was glad that in a few years, when Jeremy had children, he would know that he had done his father the last honor in his last journey. “My Shmulik, a man in men, my knight, wait for me, I will come to you, I promise.”
