"It is said that every person has a substitute, but Moody will have no substitute."
This is how journalist Ron Kaufman said goodbye today (Monday) to Modi Bar-On, who passed away after a battle with cancer.
Kaufman, who worked for many years alongside Bar-On on the sports channel, today opened the sports program on 103FM radio with an obituary for the beloved presenter.

"Already on Saturday night, in the pre-broadcast final of the Champions League final on the sports channel, I internalized that the ceremony was over. Years and a half, in which Miura announced to the nation that he was seriously ill.
"Moody did not announce.
The spokeswoman for Ichilov Hospital was the one who announced the news that Modi was a man who maintained his privacy just like 'Miura'.
They were not types of brass.
Of 'dressing up' and all that stuff.
Miura was a journalist and broadcaster with a rare voice signature.
Moody was an institution of culture and an institution of sports:
"Stand-up, screenwriting, a documentary that is rare in quality, and a personal presentation that relied on a love of sports, especially football. The concept 'spend' he created has accompanied the Champions League broadcasts for the past 26 years. Given the videos he wrote and directed ahead of the Champions League finals were a creation, they could not be defined otherwise.

"He also loved Israeli football. Even the few times he visited, he did it with the grace of an artist and focused on the body of interest and not the body of a person. Moody fell ill in December 2021 and underwent all the harsh treatments that destroyed his body. This afternoon he finished his term here.In the next season of the Champions League, he will already be presenting the studio in heaven, looking at God and his Gemata angels and saying to them: Have fun.
"It is said that every man has a substitute.
Moody Brown would have no substitute because he was rare in quality.
Of blessed memory".
