Pauli Hanhiniemi, the soloist of the Kommas nainen band, met Timo already in the fourth grade in elementary school.

– You could say that he was my lifelong friend. Blood brother, Pauli commented to Iltalehte.

– Right there, I was talking about the subject with my own brother and I said that now one of my brothers left… There was no need to explain it. My nephew also understood how close Timo was to me, a broken Pauli continues.
