. Anna Petrovna Neshkina is a home front worker, a veteran of Russian labor, a man of incredible strength of spirit and hard work.
Her fate contained difficult war years, selfless work, and a great love for the family.
During the Great Patriotic War, Anna, along with her mother and sister, was evacuated to the Kirov region, where she worked in the collective farm at a very young age, then mastered the profession of a locksmith.
After the liberation of Petrozavodsk, Anna Petrovna returned to Karelia and gave 32 years to the Petrozavodsk fish factory.
She was not afraid of any work, she was both a loader and a radio operator, sailed on a ship, studied as a tractor driver, worked for many years as a machinist of an ammonia refrigeration unit (in difficult, sometimes harmful conditions).
But it wasn’t just her work that revealed her nature.
Anna Petrovna built a house with her own hands, ran the house, grew vegetables, raised chickens.
And also devoted herself to creativity: knitted napkins and socks, sewed clothes, baked amazingly tasty pies.
And wrote poetry!
Having raised three children, she actively participated in the fate of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and today her family remains her main support and joy.
We are infinitely grateful to Anna Petrovna for her steadfastness, for an example of true service to her cause and her family.
Dear Anna Petrovna, let your loving relatives always be by your side, let each day be warm with their attention and warmth. And let the poems still be born in the heart, and peace and harmony reign in the house.
