Son frère André nous prie d'annoncer le décès de sa soeur Marguerite;
Marguerite est née en 1952 à Virelles, a habité le Katanga de 1953 à 1966. (Lubumbashi, Albertville, Dilolo et Kolwezi où elle avait fréquenté "Notre Dame des Lumières").
Son mari a écrit un mot en anglais racontant une partie de son histoire...
Dear All,
It is with extreme sadness that I need to tell you that my wife, Marguerite (“Hasi”) and mother of Sabine, Annelies and Stefaan passed away last night at 10.30 pm, due to a sudden cerebral vascular bleeding. The bleeding was so sudden and heavy that severe brain damage was inevitable, she was in a very deep coma...
It all is going too fast, the kids and I, still do not understand nor realize what is happening. Due to the volcano, Marguerite and I were re-scheduled to depart to Houston this Friday.
She decided to leave on her own, without notice and …without her luggage?
We need time to come back to reality… Please remember her as a wonderful lady with lots of devotion and love for her kids and people who needed her affection. She had to deal with tremendous uncontrollable and unforeseen dramatic events. Too much to deal with in one person’s lifetime. Marguerite struggled to digest some of those sad experiences. She lived with the past on her shoulders and could not put her mind on a more relaxing, and peaceful future, even though we all tried very hard to support her in the hope to release her pain.
Even now, she is still helping other people by donating her kidneys.
The ceremony will take place this Saturday April 24th from 2 pm till 3 pm in the Crematorium of Vilvoorde: Havendoklaan 1 – 1804 Vilvoorde – Belgium – Tel
Marguerite,” Hasi ” will be very pleased to welcome y’all !
Warm regards to all,
Hugo and kids
