"Komsomolskaya Pravda" collected condolences and memories of the First President of Udmurtia

HE WAS A GOOD PATRON

For Evgenia Krivenko and his family Alexander Alexandrovich became a real support.

When in 2010 we learned that we would have triplets, then after the last shock, an attack of happiness and the wildest fear, we began to learn how to continue to live in new, doubled realities, - says Evgeny. - First of all, we began to study the social policy of the region. And it was much more interesting than the neighbors. And all the initiatives in this direction were precisely at the suggestion of Alexander Alexandrovich. We were given an apartment, paid various allowances and subsidies. Everything was done to ensure that families with many children were confident in the future.

Today, when we go to the zoo, we remember him with gratitude. Coming to the circus, we remember thanks to whom it was built. We have completed a wonderful kindergarten, renovated thanks to him. For us, he was a good patron and such a strong support. We are very grateful to him.

Blessed memory, Alexander Alexandrovich.

NO SOONER SAID THAN DONE

You know, I will always remember him as a brave, responsible and caring person, - says Gennady Yusim, Director of Children's Art School No. 2. - Back in the 80s, when he lived in Glazov, he and my parents were neighbors in the gardens. Dad then began to build a house, but he had no skill in this. He didn’t ask anyone for help, but when Alexander Alexandrovich saw that the neighbor was trying to raise the roof, he himself approached him and said: “I will gather people on the weekend and help you.” No sooner said than done.

And after that, when we met with him, he was always interested in the health of his parents, conveyed to them wishes for a long life. I knew him as a completely different person - solid and kind. Even taking into account the fact that we often did not communicate with him, I knew that he was there and ready to help. He was of great importance to me. You know, he built so many schools and art schools, and it's worth a lot! Everlasting memory!

GOOD SOUL PERSON

Our relative Alexander Alexandrovich Volkov died. The first president of Udmurtia, - writes Elena Bochekova from Izhevsk. - He was a wonderful, kind-hearted person. Condolences to family and friends.

HE NEVER HID FROM THE PEOPLE

I never saw Izhevsk before him, but I saw after, - writes Ivan Brus from Izhevsk. - "Why don't you have radio "Chanson" in Izhevsk?" - “Volkov closed” - “What a beautiful cathedral you have!” - “Volkov built ...”, “And the zoo?” - And the zoo. I even put up a sculpture of a wolf at the entrance.” He never hid from the people, the whole of Izhevsk knows where his apartment is and where his dacha is. He was scolded and hated for closing factories, building shopping centers, scolded even for "too luxurious a zoo." He built the embankment, the presidential palace, the Circus, gave Izhevsk its architectural face, which he did not have. He did not live here all his life, but he came here and fell in love with this place, making it interesting and comfortable for everyone. Soviet Izhevsk was a completely unremarkable city, modern Izhevsk surprises me and will continue to surprise me for a long time to come. I saw Alexander Volkov only a couple of times, and we never spoke in person, which now can only be regretted. Locals say: "The era is gone", but I will say: "Thank you."

CONGRATULATED ON THE ANNIVERSARY

I cried so much ().

According to a number of criteria, the republic has become a leader both in the Volga District and in the whole country. But for people it is not the numbers that are important, but hundreds of schools, kindergartens, stadiums built throughout Udmurtia. And of course - a circus, a zoo, St. Michael's Cathedral and other iconic objects ().

HE CAN FIND THE RIGHT WORDS

It is a great personal tragedy for me that I can no longer communicate with him, a generous soul, Igor shares. Of course, there were difficult times. Before our eyes is still our Central Square, 1996. Troubled times. Pensions and salaries were not paid, enterprises practically stopped. Alexander Alexandrovich hurried to the podium across this sea of ​​people to explain the situation, and we relentlessly followed him. He always found funds for residents and businesses, he was always able to convey to people what was happening in the republic, he knew how to find the right words of support. It is an honor for me that in those difficult times and all subsequent years we lived and worked near him. My sincere condolences to the family and friends of Alexander Alexandrovich. Bright memory!

THESE PEOPLE GO TO THE SOUL

You see, he is one of those people who want to be remembered. Such people sink into the soul, into the heart. It does not go unnoticed. We will remember and love him for a long time.

HIS LIFE HAS A LOT OF BETRAYAL

The first minutes after I found out that Alexander Alexandrovich had passed away, my consciousness refused to believe it, - admitted Denis Loginov, Press Secretary, Head of the Secretariat of the First President of Udmurtia. - Even now it is difficult for me to imagine that this great man, who sincerely loved life, his work, his republic, his family, is no more. We were connected not only by 11 years of joint work. He is my teacher, mentor, like-minded person, friend... I am grateful to fate for having the opportunity to work with this bright, courageous, purposeful and very generous person. There have been many betrayals in his life. There were emotions, experiences, but I never saw in his eyes even a hint of a desire to respond in kind. I was sincerely surprised when he gave me orders to help or somehow support people who hurt him. Alexander Alexandrovich knew how to forgive.

I have never met a more optimistic person in my life, and it is very important that he knew how to charge those around him with this. It would seem that an insoluble task with his ability to set up a team became solvable.

He was a very kind and sensitive person. It was a rule for him to personally call and congratulate a person on his birthday, regardless of the status for the current minute. He always gathered for the holidays those with whom he worked in different years. These are Glazov builders, and his famous cranberry friends, and colleagues at work in the Republican Council of Ministers. He remembered everyone and tried to give everyone his attention.

Alexander Alexandrovich Volkov has come a long way and left behind a lot. These are not only large construction, social projects, which he was very proud of, but also tens of thousands of people in whose lives he took part in one way or another. I would very much like the memory of him to be preserved in the hearts of these people for as long as possible. Everlasting memory!

HE HAD DISCIPLINE

At the same time, as the General Director of KOMOS GROUP noted, Volkov was an exemplary family man who took care of his relatives and friends.

Epitaph

"The Court Historian of Oz".

Biography

Once, in order to strengthen knowledge of the English language, Alexander Volkov decided to translate the book by the American writer Frank Baum, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. As a result, he did not get a simple translation, but a very high-quality interpretation. The author added some events to the original, changed some characters, and the American fairy tale seemed to have found a new life. The manuscript was approved by the famous children's writer Marshak, and Alexander Volkov himself was instructed to seriously engage in literature.

However, by that time the writer already had some literary experience behind him, but professionally engaged only in teaching: he taught a course in higher mathematics at the Moscow Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals and Gold. And this was by no means the only specialty that he owned. Volkov was happy to conduct student electives in literature, spoke several languages ​​and, in the end, could teach any subject in the school curriculum except the Law of God. Volkov's penchant for knowledge was also striking. So, for example, the course of higher mathematics, designed for five years, Alexander Melentievich mastered in just a few months.

Alexander Volkov achieved enormous recognition as an author of children's literature. At the same time, Volkov himself relied on the cognitive aspect in his own writings. Before creating a new story, the writer carefully worked out the conceived topic, as if preparing a scientific report, and then presented it in such a fascinating and relaxed form that reading a story turned out to be no more difficult than a simple fairy tale. The total circulation of the works of Alexander Volkov, translated into dozens of languages, exceeds twenty-five million copies.

Death overtook the writer in the eighty-seventh year of his life. He spent his last days under the strict care of the family of his granddaughter, Kaleria Volkova. Volkov's cause of death was rectal cancer. Only relatives gathered at Volkov's funeral. Despite the fact that the family of Alexander Melentievich reported the tragedy to the Writers' Union, not a single newspaper wrote about Volkov's death. Finally, the writer asked that a small rag bundle with poems about love, which he dedicated to his beloved wife, be placed in his grave.

Episodes of life

During the war, when Volkov was forced to leave Moscow, the writer worked on the book Invisible Soldiers, in which he explored the use of mathematics in military affairs. However, the manuscript was lost and Alexander Melentievich had no choice but to restore the work from memory.

Alexander Volkov received a certificate from the city school at only 13 years old. At that time, such a certificate gave good benefits, such as conscription benefits or the right to become a village teacher. But the drama was that one could become a teacher only from the age of 16, and get a job in the public service in the army from 18. Therefore, a beautiful certificate with round fives for the time being had to be turned into a wall decoration.

The writer met his future wife at a New Year's ball in Ust-Kamenogorsk. Two months later, the young people got married, and a year later they had their first child, Vivian. At the age of five, the boy died of an illness, and, alas, exactly the same fate awaited the second son of the Volkovs - Romuald. Fortunately, after a few years, two boys were again born in turn in the family, who were called by the same names.
