Despite the material losses, Romanița Iovan, his former partner, not abandoned, according to Cancan.
“Romanița helps me. He helped me when I needed it. He gave me some 300 euros, when I needed to pay the home. My daughter helps me.”said Irinel Columbeanu.
Romanița Iovan, 60, had a short -term relationship with Irinel Columbeanu, more than three decades ago, but they remained friends. “We broke up in 1996, because everyone wanted something else. We were very good friends. We were young, each wanted something. The lesson I learned from Irinel was that you should not ask for help unless you are on the edge of the gap,” Romanița Iovan told Cătălin Măruță.
From a financial point of view, Irinel has a pension of about 2,000 lei, insufficient to cover the monthly asylum costs, over 4,500 lei. The accumulated debts would reach about 18,000 lei, but the management of the institution states that they do not intend to expel it.
“We do not kick him out, we do not want this, he will stay here. And his father, Ion Columbeanu, lived in this home, in his last years of life. And Zina Dumitrescu stayed here, and could not pay the monthly tax, collected thousands of euros, and still lived with us until the last moment of life,” said Ion Cassian, director of the home.
