People go to the grave in an endless stream. Fans don’t just leave flowers at Churikova’s grave. Many write notes to the actress. Someone brought a church prosphora. She lies right next to the portrait of the legendary artist. True, prosphora is inappropriate in the cemetery. Leaving the prosphora on the grave according to Orthodox canons is considered a great sin, writes the mk.ru website.
