Tötszegi Andrásné Varga Erzsébet „Puci Ángyi” (1930–2022) Méra, a village in the Kalotaszeg region of Transylvania is well-known for its traditional culture particularly in dance house movement circles. Dancers, singers, traditional costume makers, musicians and much more from this village have been documented by generations of Hungarian ethnographers. The Tötszegi family are prominent members of the village community and are also well-known as wonderful traditional dancers, singers and more. On his frequent visits to Méra, a member of Hungary’s dance house movement often took the time to sit with and listen to two elderly women from the Tötszégi family as they sat on the bench outside the gate of the family home to talk and gossip. Upon the recent passing of the second of the two women, he feels honored to have been able to join them there and talk with them. By Henics Tamás.
