“In the square there is a Christmas tree; they took it and cut it from our garden.” My husband and his father planted this tree in 1982, when he was in first grade,” Elena wrote in the city’s public publication, publishing the photo of her with the stolen fir tree in the background. -He grew up on our site for 41 years.
