'It's comfort. It's home.' Walkertown woman's Ukrainian parents faced a hard choice
A Triad resident has been encouraging her parents to leave their Ukrainian home as Russian soldiers advance on their city. Anna Shyfrina, who now lives in Walkertown, says she’s relieved they’ve finally agreed to do so. Shyfrina, a member of WFDD’s Community Advisory Board, says she has more than a dozen family members in Ukraine, ranging in age from about 6 months to 80 years old. Her parents’ home is in Mykolaiv.
