We are sad to report that the mother of our Reginal Monitor Pierre St. Cyr passed away last week. She was a matriarch in her community in the Sud and was always ready to lend a hand or open up her house for the displaced. After the big earthquake in 2010, many people lost their homes and she filled her house with them, sharing food and shelter. When her house was full, she looked for other places to house them.
She did this after every disaster thereon, whether it was hurricanes, flooding, or droughts, and especially for this current project of long-term rebuilding in Haiti. She offered her support, wisdom and food to the many who are rebuilding Haiti. She was a model for many and we hope that her geneorosity inspired more to follow in her footsteps. We know she raised her son Mr. St. Cyr with these virtues because he is still working hard with peasant groups to contribute to long term rebuilding in Haiti.
Rest in power Mme. St. Cyr!
