Mordechay Sibony was born in 1900 in Melilla, Morocco, in a province of Spain.
He died in Cholon, Israel, on 16 Tishrey, 5749 (27.9.1988), and was buried in Jerusalem. Mordechay lived a long life in which he worked real hard.
As a child, when he was 5 years old, he was kidnapped by Arabs who raised him for 11 years. All the years he was missing his father was trying to find him. Since he was a traveling merchant he went from village to village selling and looking for his son. He also  searched for his son in the mountains near the city. After a long investigation, Mordechay was found. He was brought back to the family.
Ever since, he was raised as a very religious man.

Going from door to door, selling his merchandise, Mordechay succeeded to support and raise his 8 children. His nick name was 'Bicycle'. The name was given to him since he was always running from one client to the other, to make as many sales a day as he could.
Mordechay was a good husband, a very good father and grandfather. Our children and grandchildren, and all our family, will never forget him.

May he rest in peace in The Garden of Eden Amen.
