i(0422 zeyir Aksoy)

I took a photo of i(5216 Elif Ko) and Margaret. i(0422 zeyir's) home is very poor. A TV
and a new building. One son is away. i(0422 zeyir) was bayram visiting in another vlg. She said "para yok" {gl : no money} - i(0422 zeyir) could not get
work in S. Arabia and came back with some of 1/2 m.TL fee for going there unpaid.

Second son does nothing - no skill. Eldest son is "learning".
Hard to resist conclusion that the problem is the father and two sons - not very competent.
Certainly poor. They did sacrifice - a sheep.
