In the picture, you can see the respected elders of the village, as recounted by local resident Zherindi Sayakbaeva.
“For us, this is not just an image. It captures the honorable and respected people of our village, all of whom were over 70 years old at that time. Unfortunately, they have all left this world now. The photograph was taken in the home of Cheten Shamsheev, who is a labor veteran,” Zherindi shares her memories.
According to her, at that time the head of the village was Tynchtykbek Mambetaliev. The leaders of the neighborhoods and the youth of the village also actively participated in organizing festive events.
Zherindi noted that all the men and women in the photo worked for 40-50 years in collective farms, government institutions, as well as in the fields of education and healthcare.
For example, Asanbek Sheishenaliev took care of state livestock for 45 years and was considered one of the best shepherds. Cheten Shamsheev served in the police for many years and worked as a watchman after retirement. The photo also features mothers of many children,” she concluded.
