Elisheva Meshulami
Elisheva Meshulami
19/08/2003
Elisheva Meshulami, 16 years old from Bnei Brak. Elisheva and her mother, Sima, were returning from prayers at the Western Wall when the blast occurred. Sima, who was sitting beside her daughter on the bus and suffered severe head injuries, still does not know of her daughter's death. ''Elisheva was told there was no room at the front of the bus, so she sat in the back, near the door the suicide bomber entered soon before exploding,'' her uncle said. Born in Bnei Brak, Elisheva studied at the ultra-Orthodox Beit Ya'akov school in town, then at the Beit Ya'akov ultra-Orthodox girls' seminar, where she excelled. She was the youngest daughter of Rabbi Meshulam Meshulami and Sima and had seven brothers and sisters. The family also has a foster child. Elisheva died just two months before the scheduled wedding of her brother. She was buried in Jerusalem's Har Menuchot cemetery Wednesday. Elisheva Meshulami was buried in Bnei Brak. She is survived by her parents and seven siblings.
