Since childhood, we have adopted the traditions and wisdom of people of the older generation, the foundations of culture and native speech.

This holiday as a symbol of the continuity of generations is supposed to remind all of us of your invaluable contribution to the prosperity of our native city, republic, and the whole country.

I wish you good health, happiness, inexhaustible energy, and long life! Let every day give you joy, let peace and mutual understanding reign in your home!” says the greeting.
