Condolences

Our deepest simpathy and our condolences to the Hughes family.
We will surely miss Allan.
May God rest him in peace.

The Szakal family,

From Jenny Hughes:

"It's with loads of sadness that I have to let you know that Allan died at
lunchtime today. He was here at home, was calm and peaceful and I was with
him as was our Doctor who had called in to see how we were doing."

The new door fitted today

Several jobs done today. Been in Vulcan and Mina 1 Mai.
1 Met the PVC door company guys and the new door was fitted succesfully at the morgue. Also in the past days John A. repaired the wall where the window was fitted, and I asked him to do the same with the door, to repair the wall around and than is ready for the painting. I will paint it when the reparations are done.
2. I have discussed with a few staff about the charity from Codlea, what they know about the situation.
3. Checked the flat, was OK, removed the fuse which we forgot to do in August, but done now OK.
4. Been at the kindergarten visited Garofita, discussed about her husband's condition, and took some clothes there for the children. (used but good clothing from our children)
5. Been in Vulcan, met the dentist, gave her some money.

Garofita's husband is better now, soon he will be very well but still on medical leave. He had  a very serious accident in Austria, when the big lorry started on the road without the driver, he was running after it to stop it and could not stop it but fall under it and the big wheels went across him. His son was there who stoped it eventually and called the ambulance. Had several surgeries in Austria, many weeks in the hospital there. Now... he is home doing much better, and he will be just fine in a few weeks time. So Garofita is happy that his husband is much better now.
Today was the second day of the school / kindergarten, there were some very young kids and crying after their mum, as they are not used to be in the kindergarten. garofita has a difficult job to make them quiet.
The head nurse is now on holiday. The door fitting went on very well, no problems.
The sewing ladies asked for a new lock on their door as the door handle was in their hands and the lock was no good. These fellows took the handle to arrange for a new door lock, they will tell me how much it cost, but it won't be too expensive.
Photos will follow.
