Condolences / Condoléances

  Où est-ce je commence ? Mon coeur est brisé, brisé, brisé…je suis bouleversée, secouée…je suis prise de court par ce qui s’est passé à Nice.
Je ne cesse jamais de penser aux gens qui était là. Les attentats à Nice ont crée un tel trou dans mon coeur et je fais le deuil pour eux maintenant… Moi je pense et je pense à ceux qui ont perdu leur vie le 14 juillet à Nice, et à leurs familles, et aux survivants ! Mon coeur reste avec vous les Français, et je vous envoie tout mon soutien. Bon courage.

  Having lived and studied in France I am saddened by the recent attacks. My heart goes out to all the French people and especially those who have lost loved ones. My heart is one with the French people. I consider it my home away from home. With love and unwavering support.

  It is heartbreaking to see France suffer from these repeated attacks. Every time that I have traveled to France, I have seen the kindness and spirit of the French. May you not let these attacks change you! I wish a speedy recovery to those still injured.

  I am truly sorry for the fight all French citizens have been having to go through. It’s impossible to ever measure up the amount of loss and hurt that one may go through. A country should never have to battle through so much loss. I send my prayers to all those who were affected, as well as the families. You are in our hearts.
Pamela P.
  My prayers go out to and for the people of France and the suffering that has occurred in these past months.

  The attack on the innocents of Nice is absolutely disgusting. I had hoped the culprits would be captured alive to face justice, but of course the cowards chose not to face France’s wrath.
I have long since studied France (my family is of French origin, moving to America in the 1760’s), and I have great respect for your country. I am actually in the middle of researching attending college in France, as well as moving there to become a citizen.
Warm Regards, and my heart goes out to the victims of this cowardly attack on Nice.
Thomas E.
  I am deeply sorry about the incident and encourage all residents of Nice and entire France not to lose their vigilance and remain cautious and united in fighting foreign influence and sabotages. Please accept my sincere condolences.

  It was Bastille Day, we were watching the Paris Celebration on the French Channel 341. It was with great proud, since my Father was a Cavalerie Officer, also in charge of the Cavalerie Musique School in Saumur. Few hours later,I could not believe with terror what was appening in Nice. We visited Nice twice, we stayed at the Negressco. I had a very special memory of the beauty of the Promenade des Anglais. Now my soul is in great pain for the people who are left with such attrocities and to the pain and souffrance that the survivors who left with a long recovery. I will pray each day with the help of God,I hope that he will be your salvation.
Stay strong , I am thinking of you and wich that I could hold you in my arms to consol you.
God Bless, a Friend. With all my condolences.
Lucile R. F.

  A Nice, la Fête Nationale populaire et joyeuse s’est transformée en une soirée de terreur.
Les forces aveugles de criminels sans foi ni loi ont encore frappé en utilisant un décervelé meurtrier.
De la Baie des Anges, de petits anges ont quitté ce monde : fauchés, brisés, écrasés, broyés. Bouleversés par les dizaines de morts, les centaines de blessés nous nous inclinons et nous recueillons envers tous ceux touchés par cette atrocité.
Mais cette tragédie renforce nos convictions qui sont de ne jamais renoncer à défendre et à promouvoir les vraies valeurs que ce monde doit connaître : liberté, égalité, fraternité.
Issa Nissa
Vive la France

  As these terrible events unfold I and my family pray for France and its leaders to find the strength and resolve to overcome the scourge of terrorism. Having spent Christmas holidays in Nice a few years ago with my family, we as a family were horrified to see the images of the beautiful promenade des Anglais turned into a graveyard. God Bless France!

  Mes premières pensées vont aux victimes, à leurs proches, à leurs familles et à toutes les personnes touchées par ce drame.
L’éloignement n’atténue ni la douleur ni la tristesse, bien au contraire. J’ai l’impression de revivre, encore et encore, le même cauchemar. Comment un être humain peut-il commettre un acte aussi abject? Comment avons-nous pu en arriver là ?
Si les mots me manquent, ma détermination à défendre nos valeurs est plus forte que jamais.
F. Badey, Conseiller Consulaire

  J’envoie des prières et des encouragements à Nice, à la France, et à tous et à toutes qui étaient touchés par les événements récents à Nice. Parmi la douleur, la tristesse, et la colère qui viennent pendant le deuil, j’espère que les communautés françaises ressentent l’amitié de toutes les communautés étrangères partout dans le monde, et que petit à petit, des actes de bonté, d’amitié, d’accueil, de réconciliation, et de service, vont contribuer au processus de guérison. Que tout le monde trouvent ce dont ils ont besoin dans cette période et que les communautés brisées se retrouvent en paix, unies, et plein d’espoir.

  God Bless Nizza (Nice). You are always in my thoughts and prayers. We will all work to make the world a safer place.
Tony D. F.
  A message of loving kindness to all the French people, May you all be happy well and peaceful, May no harm come to you, May no difficulty come to you, May all beings be happy well and peaceful. I also remember my great stepmother Solange from Bellac who during the first World War met my great grandfather Harold Stearns and took such fine care during the war. The French people during the 2nd world war protected my grandfather Harold Stearns jr. as he worked in the OSS and hid among the French villages. Without their care and help I might have lost my grandfather so I feel that if their is any comfort we can offer it reflects the deep connection my family has had through 2 World wars.
With deepest compassion, Susan S.
  On behalf of myself and my family we want to share not only our condolences for the tragic murders and the tremendous toll it takes on the families and loved ones of the deceased. We also want to,offer our prayers for those who have suffered horrid injuries as a result of a senseless act of terrorism. As France was the first ally of the Unitd States some 240 years ago, we want all of France to know that the United States stands with you. The pain suffered in Nice is felt by United States citizens from coast to coast. May God grant strength to all those who have deeply and personally effected by the events in Nice.
Edward C.
  We love our oldest and first friend. We stand with you.

Toutes nos pensées, notre solidarité, nos condoléances aux familles touchées; les mots sont impuissants pour décrire notre désarroi et comment ne pas mentionner ces sentiments pour exorciser l’horreur qui s’imprègne de nos âmes? Il faut montrer notre force, notre solidarité; ne baissons pas les bras devant la fin cauchemardesque d’une belle fête nationale de la liberté, de l’égalité et de la fraternité.
Soyons forts et solidaires.

George K.
  Your Excellency, Embassy Staff in Washington, President and dear people of France,
Words cannot describe our profound sadness at the attack in Nice and at all that France has suffered in the past year. There is a deep and special bond between the United States and France, our very first friend. As a scholar of history, I have had priceless opportunities to study in France and to live with and learn from the French people, in Paris, Rouen, Le Havre, Metz, Chartres, Aix, and Nice. I remember with deep affection the warmth and kindness of the people toward me. No student of history can fail to be moved by France’s courage and strength or to see how she has endured and prevailed. In the next days and weeks, and long after the media has gone, we shall be thinking of the people of France. We grieve with you for loved ones. We pray for the families, for the injured, and for all who are hurting. Please accept our heartfelt condolences and profound solidarity. We love you and stand with you.
Celeste H. and family
  A beautiful country and wonderful people. Sad that France is experiencing this horrible attack. Looking forward to visiting France again in the future.

  On behalf of the Finnish Honorary Consulate in Seattle I want to express our deepest sadness and condolences for the city and citizens of Nice, the country of France and all people affected by these despicable acts of violence against families celebrating the Bastille Day 2016. It is heart wrenching how much France, a country standing for freedom, has been attacked this year. May peace win.

  Dear Ambassador and all French Citizens,
Please accept our family’s most sincere sympathy on the Bastille Day terrorist attack in Nice. Forgive my very limited ability to speak French, but I remembered these words for those who were lost: hommes, femmes, enfants, brothers and sisters in our larger human family, innocents all. May God welcome each precious soul with an angelic choir and tender love. May all those injured have the best of medical and nursing care to recover. May all the families of so many nationalities who are mourning a loved one be comforted by God’s angels and by all of us on Earth who will honor the memory of the ones who were lost yesterday.
Very Sincerely Yours,
Mr. And Mrs. Steven G. K., Mr. Evan K. and Ms. Teresa K.

VIVE LA FRANCE!!!
James C.
  It was with great shock and horror that I received the news of the most recent attack on the people of our best and oldest ally, the Republic of France.
I, and the rest of the common American citizens, weep for your losses and feel nothing but contempt for the uncivilized cowards who would commit such a most heinous crime.
Those of us who belong to the civilized world must stand together and end these assaults on the innocent; until the message is brought home most forcefully to every madrassa, every state harboring terrorists, every radicalized rogue- of whatever religion- that attacks on the civilian population by unaffiliated criminals will not be tolerated and the penalty is death, we will all suffer as France suffers now.
I pray for your victims, for the survivors, for the government of France, and for all of us with barbarians at our gates...
Bless the people of France, and grant you peace and relief from fear.
The citizens of America stand with our great friends and allies. Viva La France!
Raymond O.
  My profound condolences.
I would like to offer my sincere regrets for the tragic attack on France and on people in Nice on Bastille Day 2016. I have driven and walked along Le Promenade des Anglais a number of times and am saddened that this beautiful location and celebratory event of life and freedom should be targeted by a horrific criminal action.
Sincerely,
Alan S.
  Our prayer go out to all the families who have lost loved ones in this horrific tragedy! May you be comforted in the fact that the entire world mourns with you! We are so very sad for you all...
Kathy B.
  I wish that I could express my sympathies to you in French but my knowledge of your language is not good enough to convey the depth of my feelings. My family have spent many happy holidays in the South of France and am devastated that someone could carry out such an horrific act on your National Day. My country may have voted to leave the EU, but we stand solidly with you at this time. You will always have our hearts and out prayers.
Patricia E.
  We in the USA grieve with you. We’re so very sorry that another senseless act of violence has taken loved ones. Blessed are those who mourn for they will be comforted. Peace be with you.

  Pardonnez-moi, je regrette que mon francais n’est pas courant, mais il faut parler. Je vous remercie de l’occasion.
Il y a des années, j’eus la chance d’attendre l’Académie Internationale d’Été. Je me souviens bien que, le jour où nous conduisîmes de Nice à Paris à la fin des études, je regardais dérouler la beauté de la France et ne réussis pas à comprendre comment on puisse faire la guerre en tels environs, comment abandonner la propre nature pour verser le sang d’un autre, soit ennemi où innocent, human ou animal. Ce paysage idéale qui a inspiré les plus exquises realizations de l’humanité devrait élever chacun à reconnaître son meilleure aspect. Seulement une âme cassée reste au-delà de l’embrace de la France. Même brisée, l’âme des millions de gens y restera.
Phyllis E.
  Mis mas sinceras condolencias por tan terrible acontecimiento. mis oraciones por todas las personas que están sufriendo y mis deseos que termine tanta violencia y odio.

  Au nom du gouvernement et du peuple bulgare, et en mon nom personnel, j’exprime mes condoléances les plus profondes aux familles des victimes de l’attentat terroriste commis en plein cœur de Nice, au peuple et au gouvernement de la France.
La Bulgarie condamne avec la plus grande fermeté cette odieuse attaque qui a laissé au moins 84 victimes et plusieurs blessés en urgence absolue.
La France a été frappée le jour de sa fête nationale, le 14 juillet – le symbole de la liberté et de l’unité nationale. L’Europe entière a été attaque de nouveau. Dans ces moments particulièrement éprouvants, je tiens à réitérer notre ferme condamnation du terrorisme. Ses actes ignobles et lâches ne peuvent pas être justifiés quels que soient ses motifs et ses origines.
La Bulgarie réaffirme son engagement à travailler sans relâche pour lutter contre le fléau du terrorisme. Cette lutte appelle à la coopération internationale la plus active pour la défense de nos valeurs communes de liberté et de démocratie.
Aujourd’hui, nous sommes tous Français.
Tihomir Stoytchev – Ambassadeur Extraordinaire et Plénipotentiaire de la République de Bulgarie aux États-Unis d’Amérique

John A. N.
  My heart is heavy today. The people of France are beautiful and strong. You will rise above this tragedy and be stronger than ever. I send you my love and my prayers.
Kathryn
  I am so shocked and sorry, mostly upset over the attacks that France has suffered in recent months, not to mention other countries in Europe.
This most recent attack is outrageous and grotesque in it’s complete inhumanity.
Before this incident my family was dealing with health issues and now I’m so torn between attending a vigil nearby if any and my normal day to day responsibilities.
France has been a great ally to the United States of America and this is so upsetting. just emotional and not enough comprehension. This past Monday I visited the National Shrine and their mini Grotto of Lourdes for the Virgin Mary. There are always so many candles lit there. I don’t think they can make any more available to have lit at a time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with France and other victims of such horrific events.
Saint Lucy and Saint Blaise have been prominent in unexpected ways lately so remember the Community of Saints and we are all called to be Saints.
Best wishes
Ben
  Sending prayers to all and want to ask for help for them so I am new at this political stuff not sure how to go about it.

May God be with you all at this time.

  I’m actually in tears while writing these few lines and I feel both sadness and anger at the same time. This happened in Nice but it could have happened everywhere else. This must end, we cannot continue to be random targets for these "less-than-beasts" criminals and I hope that soon we all will work together in "terminating" this nonsense fanatic activity. My thoughts and prayers to the victim of Nice, to the French people and to the great country of France. Vive la France!

  As USA’s oldest ally, and in general, myself and multitudes of U.S. citizens are appalled and truly saddened by the string of hateful, barbaric attacks on the innocent citizens of your great country. We are behind you in your struggle to root out and contain such ruthless and sociopathic behavior. The people who carry out such mindless attacks hate, and are antithetical to what your country stands for: liberty, equality, fraternity.
Vive la France!

  All my condolences. I am very sad and feel helpless as always when these tragic events take place. With Nice, the feeling is even more painful because as a former Mauritanian student in France, lots of people I know studied in Nice, some met their current spouses their and all still mention with nostalgia beautiful engaging heartfelt stories about their life in Nice with very often in the background la Promenade des Anglais.

  Je vous offre tous mes condoléances les plus sincères après le massacre à Nice. C’est l’horreur que les islamistes radicaux prennent pour cibles les innocents, surtout les pauvres enfants. C’est la preuve que l’idéologie radicale n’a vraiment pas de valeurs morales. Nous, les américains, comme tous les gens de bon essent, sommes horrifiés.
