Came to help friends protect the house. Four barriers stopped him on the way. In all of them, the security personnel advised him to turn around and immediately return to Tel Aviv. Four times he refused. Four times he continued the journey. Even when the road was blocked to vehicles, Ziv did not give up and ran on foot to Be'eri.He managed to reach the kibbutz gate, took a weapon from the body of one of the terrorists lying on the grass and ran towards the dining room. paddle to touch. Tried to save a life. There, hurt.Ziv Chopin died, in the battle for the kibbutz that was his whole world. Two weeks before his fifty-sixth birthday.

After a distinguished service in the paratroopers and some world travel, he studied refrigeration engineering, worked in the kibbutz, and was responsible for installing the air conditioners of all the old friends, who loved and appreciated him very much. Ziv had two habits in the kibbutz: every Friday afternoon he would show up for the youth soccer tournament on the grass, and at night he would come to Be'eri's pub.
