International Day of Older Persons has been celebrated in Russia since 1992. The holiday is celebrated annually on October 1. On this day, the head of Barnaul Vyacheslav Frank congratulated pensioners on an important date.
The mayor of the regional capital stressed that on such a holiday it is important not to forget about the courage of veterans of the Great Patriotic War and the exploits of home front workers who defended our Motherland and restored the country. Now they make no less significant contribution to society: they participate in the education of the younger generation, conduct active social activities and contribute to the life of Barnaul.
“I sincerely congratulate you on the International Day of the Elderly Person! Today is a great occasion to say warm words of gratitude to our parents, grandparents for invaluable life experience, kindness and wisdom!

I wish you health, happiness, family coziness, love and attention of relatives and friends! – expressed gratitude to Vyacheslav Frank.
