- Jackson Avery

Françoise Laborde posted on Instagram some photos of her sister Catherine on May 8, day of her birthday.

“Today is your birthday. You would have been 74 years old, ”she wrote in a photo of them, entwined and smiling in a restaurant.

This is the first anniversary that the family passed without the TF1 weather presenter, disappeared on January 28 after several years of fighting against a terrible illness, dementia with Lewy body.

But, recalls Françoise Laborde, “You are still in our hearts. With your daughters Gabrière and Pia, with your older sister Geneviève … with the whole family who loves you. We miss you!”

The journalist also published the front page of “Paris Match”, with a portrait of the “queen of the weather” and the big title “Farewell Catherine Laborde”.

Photos of Catherine Laborde and her daughters Gabrière and Pia, seated in the restaurant, and the three Laborde sisters, a big smile on his lips and disheveled by the blowing wind, complete the moving carousel.

Moments of happiness, therefore, to counter the sadness of loss, all the more sensitive than Françoise, a little younger than Catherine, also celebrated her birthday in May … The 1st, without her sister.
