Ato Assefa Adeferese was my classmate in the elementary school. We both took the 8th grade examination in 1960(1953). I mate Ato Assefa Adeferese in 2012 after almost 50 years. As a student, Ato Assefa Adeferese was always dressed in style. When I mate him in October 2012, he has not changed physically at all. Like he stated, he never bowed for authority already when he was a student. He is a very honest gentleman. Please pass my greetings to him. I am sending this message from Heidelberg, Germany.
