The municipality pays tribute to Suzanne Marie for her retirement

On the first Sunday of October, around 11:30 a.m., the inhabitants of Vierville-sur-Mer gathered in the communal hall, opposite Omaha Beach, to welcome Suzanne Marie's retirement. The mayor, Jean-Marie Oxéant, retraced her career in the service of the municipality.

A municipal employee since October 1, 1979, Suzanne Marie had been a municipal guard, market manager, municipal hall manager and school housekeeper. Her four children attended this tribute. Her substitute was also named Mrs. Marie.

The municipality gave her a television and an oil heater. After opening the gifts, participants shared a glass of friendship and petits fours.

The meeting was extended at the Hotel du Casino, located opposite, for the meals of the elders. Sixty guests surrounded the two oldest guests, Miss de Bellaigue, 86, and Mr. Merlin, 95.

Reconstructed or uncertain passages:
- The date of Tuesday, October 7, 1997 appears in a handwritten annotation on the denomination; the body places the ceremony on the first Sunday of October. These two dates are not confused.
