Death of Elena Tochilko – National Secretary of UNIMA Russia
It is with great regret that we record the passing of Elena Tochilko in May 2016. However it is not only for the success of the puppetry culture that Elena will be remembered, but for her generosity, kindness and simple humanity. She helped and encouraged generations of youngsters in Russian area, her hospitality and sense of family loyality was legendary and those who knew her will carry forever in their hearts the memory of a very great lady.
