The message of the death...Translation:<br />Dear Koozma,<br />The message of the death of Volodya Gubanov plunged me into great sadness. Over the past six months, many of my good friends and friends have died, including Doukhobors. We closely communicated with Volodya in the 1990s. Despite the collapse of the country and very difficult times, he was full of plans for the future. They concerned both Doukhobors and his own life in art. There is a saying: 'We believe, and God disposes,' i.e. we make plans, but whether they are implemented or not, it depends on God. Not all of his plans and dreams came true, although if he had lived, it would have been possible. But still he left a mark on the earth and in our hearts.Koozma J.

сообщение о смерти Володи Губанова...Дорогой Кузьма,<br />сообщение о смерти Володи Губанова ввергло меня в большую печаль. За последние полгода умерло много моих хороших знакомых и друзей, в том числе и духоборцы. С Володей мы тесно общались в 1990-е годы. Несмотря на развал в стране и очень тяжелые времена, он был полон планов на будущее. Они касались и духоборцев и его собственной жизни в искусстве. Есть такая поговорка: "Мы полагаем, а Бог располагает", т.е. мы строим планы, но претворятся они в жизнь или нет, - это зависит от Бога. Далеко не все его планы и мечты осуществились, хотя если бы он еще пожил, то, возможно, и осуществились бы. Но все равно он оставил след на земле и в наших сердцах.<br />Светлана ИниковаSvetlana Inikova, Moscow, 7 January 2019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4048398846215710793.post-69029088498168809302021-03-06T12:39:59.351-08:002021-03-06T12:39:59.351-08:00Alex & Julie Ewashen, January 2019

We remember well when you and Vladimir visited us, and he sketched me while we were having breakfast. <br /><br />Lately The Council of Doukhobors in Canada have been in communication with him with the possibility of having a Russian-Canadian Doukhobor reunion on his premises. He has not forgotten his Doukhobor Heritage.<br />Alex & Julie Ewashen, 6 January 2019noreply@blogger.com
