Four generations of Elkhonen Saks' family

This snapshot shows four generations of my family. I am on the right, my son Touri Saks is on the left and in the middle is his daughter Elina Saar. Elina and I are holding her twin daughters Liise and Lotte. The photo was taken in my son's apartment on his birthday in 1999. Touri finished high school, and then the Tallinn Pedagogical Institute. By trade he is a music teacher and leads a chorus. Estonians always loved choral singing. Touri has supervised big choral collectives. They frequently performed in other republics and abroad. Nowadays the cultural life in Estonia is much weaker, and my son's profession is no longer in high demand. He works with a Tallinn company involved in the sale of books. My granddaughter, Elina, is finishing the Faculty of Estonian Philology at Tartu University. She is married and lives with her family in Keila, near Tallinn. Her husband, a historian, works in the Estonian Ministry of Defense. They have two small twin daughters, Liise and Lotte.
