“Farewell”: before the death of Fedoseyev-Shukshin sent a special sign to her friend

“I had our portrait at home, which depicts me, Lydia Nikolaevna and her daughter Olga,” says Julia. I received it after winning the court. I hung it in my house in a prominent place.

"This morning he suddenly fell off the wall and got hurt," Yulia said. There was no external influence on him. I wrapped it neatly in film and was going to take it the other day for restoration. Literally in these minutes I was informed that Lydia Nikolaevna was gone. I immediately understood why he suddenly fell. She said goodbye to me like that.

Verbitskaya-Linnik says that there are very few people like Lidia Nikolaevna.

Lydia Nikolaevna is an amazing woman, I still can’t talk about her in the past tense. - Very bright, kind, reasonable. What an interesting conversationalist she was. I could listen to her for hours. Lydia Nikolaevna was always frank: she spoke directly as is. In recent years, she was very concerned that her daughters could not find a common language. She was worried about it. I always said to me: “I so want us all to gather together on weekends and holidays at one big table, to enjoy life.”

“Bright and kind memory of Lydia Nikolaevna,” sighs Verbitskaya-Linnik. We will all miss her very much. And I will restore the portrait and hang it on the place where it was before.
