I went back through the Internet Wayback machine to see the original image, then used right-click-google-image-search to find the page link. The image isn't there, but a detailed biography from the family is posted.
As I searched a bit more, I found this Russian language webpage

Once again Google Translate put the text into English. The writer is repeating a number of the common truths, and he adds answers about paint colour and some build details. (The lesson for all of us is to be aware that the walls have ears. Everything we write and post can be repeated. As well, be cautious not to propagate errors or misperceptions.)
