Wright,
Dean in Eureka, CA did some quick research, barely knew what he was saying himself when he wrote:Heikki & Suvi, (Classic Finn & Mrs. Classic Finn)

Itsenäisyyspäivä (Independence Day)


Finland gained it's independence from Russia on this day in 1917. (December 6th)

Gee - Ahh Shucks - You folks are the greatest.. Thank You for the nice
thoughts... Suvi and I are very proud to have you folks think of us and our Lil Country of Finland..
And yes our Independence Day - Our forefathers fought hard back then to become free.. so we do take pride in this day..and honor the ones who
fought very hard in order to become free.

As any other country should as well..

As a small country we do take the meaning of freedom seriously.. and to have always kept friendly ties with other nations..

Again thanks to all of you.. :applause: :applause:

Sincerely
Heikki, Suvi and Lil Samuel and Nicholas
Royal Teardrop Society Scandinavian Bureau Chief of Staff
