I had the good fortune to visit the home of Sisko and Pentti Paakki to convey birthday greetings to Sisko, who was 65 today.
The meaning of the word "Sisko" is "sister". And Sisko is a real sister to everyone, including her 13 children and the 25+ grandchildren.
Both of them have been active supporters of CHAFF, but Sisko has been unable to attend regularly as she works at the Haukipudas Health Centre and is either on night duty or on duty before or during many CHAFF meetings.
Their son Tuomas and his wife Mirja with their new four month old baby, Oko and their two other children were there to help celebrate this occasion. They live in Vantaa. I had had the pleasure of meeting them just over a year ago at the wedding of Sisko and Pentti's daughter Hanna who was married to Jouni.
I did have a problem recognising Mirja as she had changed her hair style. Why do women have to be so difficult? :-)
Happy birthday Sisko and we wish you many many more.
