Nissan Teman z"l

Betari Nissan Teman has died.

The funeral will be at Pardes Chana cemetery on Friday, February 21.

Nissan of Queens, NY, joined Betar in 1963 and became a senior madrich and a member of the Hanhaga Artzit. He accompanied Rosh Betar's remains to Israel in 1964. He participated in many actions and contributed a high-level input to the educational and cultural activities due to his command of Hebrew, the connections he forged with figures in Israel, his erudition and insight.

In the very early 70s, he served as Rosh Hanhaga Artzit for a period. David Stahl adds "Nissan was the Mefaked of Beit Sefer leMadrichim held at Camp Betar in Neversink, N.Y. in 1969, along with Chuck Waxman".

After his Aliyah with his wife Rhisa and two children, he served as a probation officer and then in Israel's Police.
