Oh, I am so incredibly sorry to hear this. Please accept my deepest condolences. Fakarava won’t be the same without her. It was a privilege to have met Auntie Poline, and I will always remember that beautiful moment we shared. Wishing you and everybody else affected peace and strength as you celebrate her wonderful life.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful moment you had with my Great Auntie Poline.

Sadly, she recently passed away. She gained her wings to heaven and is sharing her beautiful voice with angels.

That’s so lovely to hear – thank you for sharing that. I can imagine what a special moment that must have been. Auntie Poline has a way of staying with everyone she meets. I’m touched that the story resonated with your own experience of her.

I sat with her and my family on the beach in Fakarava a few years ago and listened to her stories. We still talk about her.
