Voilà déjà un an que tu nous as quittés, et pourtant le temps n’efface rien. Ton absence reste une présence de chaque instant, mais le souvenir des jours heureux passés à tes côtés demeure intact et précieux dans nos cœurs. Dans la foi et la prière, nous gardons l’espérance de ce jour béni où nous nous retrouverons. Que le Seigneur t’accorde le repos éternel. Une messe anniversaire sera célébrée en sa mémoire le dimanche 23 août 2026, à 10 heures, en la collégiale Saint-Laurent, à Estavayer-le-Lac. Merci à tous ceux qui s’associeront à notre prière ou auront une pensée pour elle en ce jour.
