My grandfather Anatoly Petrovich Trubnikov would be 100 on November 28, 2012. I don’t want to pronounce these words “would be”. They remind of the past and say that the person is no more with us.

Don’t put your relatives’ photos in the albums and they will live with us forever. Their wisdom and experience will help you in everyday life. And it will turn out that many modern far-fetched issues are such trifling matters if we see their real lives in the overused phrases about our ancestors’ heroic past.
