Stepan Soskida

My older grandson Stepan Soskida (in Israel - Itzhok Neuman), a soldier of the Israeli army. My grandson sent this photograph to his parents and my wife and me in Uzhgorod. This photo was taken in Israel, Kibbutz Yakov, Ashdod, in 2000.

My daughter Judit is chief economist of the power network department of the town, She is married and her husband is Ukrainian. Judit’s husband, Miroslav Soskida, deals with the issues of recovery of the ozone medium. His scientific works were in a contest in Washington and now he has a job offer to work in Washington.

Judit has two children. Her son Stepan, born in 1976, moved to Israel after finishing school in Uzhgorod. Now his name is Itzhok. It’s the 7th year of my grandson’s service in the Israeli army. He defends the country that has become his homeland. I am proud of him and I am proud that a member of our family defends the holy land for all of us. Judit’s daughter Anita was born in 1985. She is a 1st-year student of Uzhgorod University.
