Cher Bernard, C'est avec regret que j'ai appris le décès de Simone. Je ne l'ai pas connue beaucoup, mais les quelques fois que je l'ai rencontrée au bridge, je l'ai bien appréciée. La seule consolation de la perte d'un être cher est sûrement le fait que cet être en a terminé avec ses souffrances. Je te souhaite tout le courage qu'il faut pour passer au travers de cette épreuve. Mes sympathies pour toi et ta famille. Micheline
