"A traveling companion, a friend ..."
 |
| Guylaine Gouzou-Testud - DR |
C is with great sadness and deep emotion that I just learned the death of Guylaine Gouzou-Testud. In Jean-Louis, her husband, her son Adrian and two Calixte, to his daughter, Leah, I offer my deepest condolences. After suffering a heart attack the day before Noël, Guylaine had been dipped in a coma. His death is a loss for us all. A loss to his family, his friends and relatives who go to my thoughts. A loss for the city of Lyon that it was one of the best ambassadors.
A loss to the Red Cross, the neighborhood she never left. For my part, I lose an assistant, a fellow traveler, but especially a friend. Guylaine was activist convinced of the meeting of all the forces of the plural left and environmentalists. Became Mayor in 2001, it is naturally to her that I turned for the development of social economy. With Guylaine, Lyon became a few years a pilot city of the national territories of fair trade. His vision was not narrow. She defended sustainable development linking all environmental issues, socially useful and responsible consumption. His creation, a year ago, the label " Lyon City Equitable and Sustainable " has to be in Lyon again at the forefront of social innovation and ecological, attracting the attention of our fellow citizens here and throughout France. Guylaine will be missed, we miss her already. A condolence book has been this morning to the public at the entrance of the Hotel de Ville. L he first collected tributes are those of municipal officials who appreciated the authenticity of Guylaine, his simplicity, his kindness, openness to others, his frankness too. We will not forget. His spirit continues to inspire our action in the service of this humanism Lyon it embodied so well.
