Hey!!
Today I was suddenly thinking of the pupils of my class in primer school in Pansio.
Very first I remembered Taru Rauha. Taru came to our class in the middle of the first year in 1957. Her family had just moved to Finland from Africa. I remember the very first day after school when I met Taru crying on the school-yard . I asked her what's wrong and she answered that she could not find her home because all the houses look the same! I cant remember how we found her home but we did.
Taru was very humble and quiet girl. I never got know her better, but she came to my mind often during all the years and decades. We went to different upper schools after 4 years. I never met her after that.
So today I Googled the name Taru Rauha and I got this!!
Rest in piece Taru.
My condolences to her family.
