The widow of Mikhail Klimenko from the ADAM group came out into public space for the first time after the musician’s funeral and addressed the Ukrainians. Alexandra Norova got in touch with tears in her eyes and thanked everyone who supported her family.

She published the appeal in InstaStories more than a week after saying goodbye to the artist. According to Norova, she did not expect such large-scale support from Ukrainians.

Alexandra thanked for the words of sympathy, hugs, financial assistance and for the fact that people continue to listen and sing the songs of the ADAM group, preserving the memory of Mikhail Klimenko.

" I didn't expect this. I thank everyone for the hugs, for the kind words, thank you for the financial help.. Thank you for listening to ADAM songs, thank you for singing songs. Thanks for the memories in stories. Thank you for your kindness,” said Alexandra Norova.

In her address, the musician’s widow also urged Ukrainians to value loved ones and not put off important words for later.

" Please love each other. Kiss more often. Hug each other. Say what you love. Meet with friends more often. I am very grateful to you,"

Farewell to Mikhail Klimenko took place on December 9 at the Kyiv Philharmonic. The hall was filled with fresh flowers - red and white roses - in accordance with the request of the musician's widow. At the entrance there were easels with famous quotes from ADAM songs about love..

These phrases became the visual and meaningful accent of the ceremony, recalling the main theme of the artist’s work.

After his wife’s moving speech, those present honored the memory of Klymenko with a multi-minute ovation, and then in unison they sang his most popular song, “Pol’no.”. This moment was the final gesture of gratitude to the musician for his creativity and humanity.

Mikhail Klimenko died on December 7, 2025 after a three-week coma caused by complications of tuberculous meningitis.
