We had the special opportunity of attending a Rajaton concert in London, Ontario in April. For those in North America who are not familiar with Rajaton, it is a six-member Finnish a capella group.
The concert was wonderful. Excerpts of their video can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com (search term > Rajaton).
[for Elaine & Jorma Salo]
Jorma Paivio Salo
Feb. 27, 1931 – Aug. 23, 2008
Jorma Salo, husband of Elaine (née Maukonen) of London, Ontario, passed away peacefully at Victoria Hospital, London after a short, courageous struggle with cancer.
On October 4, there was a graveside memorial service conducted by Rev. Tuula Van Gaasbeek of Agricola Lutheran Church followed by a reception at Suomi Koti, a Finnish-Canadian retirement home in Toronto.
