Valérie Pierron wanted to raise the spirits of her father Daniel, who had just been widowed and was hospitalized far from the Vosges where he was born. Therefore, she launched an appeal on social networks, asking Internet users who wanted to send postcards representing the Vosges landscape.
While her father, who is hospitalized in the Paris region, has not returned to his hometown in the Vosges for more than five years, her daughter has appealed on Facebook and to France Bleu. To boost the spirits of her father, who is 80 and has been a widow for six months, Valérie Pierron asked those who wanted to send him a postcard from the Vosges.
Between his loneliness and his various health problems, Daniel Pierron “could no longer smile,” his daughter said. For months, he kept repeating that he would never see his homeland again. “He would often look at his mailbox, open it, and often there would be nothing. Finding something from the Vosges there, I hope it will give him courage, a little fishing,” explains Valérie Pierron.
Therefore, he appeals for generosity and empathy from those who accept his call. For those who wish, you can send your card to the following address: 29 rue Michel Chasles, apartment 20, 78120 Rambouillet.
