Sadly, it has been reported that Anna Pavlova's father passed away yesterday. Anna will not be competing at the Voronin Memorial this year and will be heading home for the funeral.


I'd like to extend my condolences to Anna and her family. Losing a parent is a very difficult point in our lives and everyone at Anna Pavlova Online wishes Anna our full condolences and support.


May Anatoly Pavlov rest in peace.

Dear Anna. I wish to express my condolences to you regarding the loss of your father. You have already had to face knee surgery recently. You had to be brave to endure that operation. Now, more is asked of you.
You can always know that you distinguished yourself in your father's lifetime. You can be so proud of that fact.
When times are sad in the future, please know that people are there to support you. A hug goes to you now from one of your many fans!

Please let my best wishes to you, give you strength when you need it.

Bye from Phil.
