It is so sad even now... but at least he lived his life to the fullest even if it was a short one. He lived more than many people do in their whole lives. I hope that Katia can now look back on those years and remember the good times instead of the horrible ones... I wonder if Daria remembers him well, he seemed like such a good father but she was very young.
They were beautiful on the ice and in their own lives. That will always live.
