– Very sad news… It’s very hard on my soul. I knew Alexander Georgievich, he was an excellent president of the federation for many years, we skated and competed under his guidance. For me, he was not only a president, but partly a friend. He was always very nice and responsive. We warmly communicated, I always congratulated him on his birthday, and if it turned out late, he always joked: “But I’m still waiting for Katya to call me.”
It is a great loss for me personally and for the whole figure skating family. I express my most sincere condolences to all his family and friends. I will certainly write or call people I know to personally pass on words of support. It is very difficult for me to accept this, I have always been very grateful to Alexander Georgievich. It is very difficult to choose words and express everything that is in my heart now … – Bobrova told .
