She was 77 years old, still a long stretch of life ahead of her and a head full of ideas she was working on. This Monday, July 18, Dani died. The singer, actress, leader of the review bowed out in the greatest discretion, she who thought she could go back on stage soon for the release of her new opus. She will never have the chance.
It was his manager Lambert Boudier who announced the sad news: “She was already finishing the mixes for a new album, which she had mischievously chosen to call Caution Departure. We were warned, she had just forgotten to tell us that it would be imminent. Booms and bangs, Dani lived it and made us live it, to meet her was to embark on a mad race where love was the key word“, he wrote. The tributes were numerous on the Web, at the height of the talent that she showed each time. They will surely be as much on the day of her funeral.
The last tribute to Dani will take place in his city of Perpignan. The funeral will take place on Tuesday, July 26.in the Saint Jean-Baptiste cathedral where the religious ceremony should be entrusted to Father Joseph Marti, a man of culture who knew the deceased well“as advertised on the site The Independent. The mass will be followed by the burial in the family vault at the Saint-Martin cemetery where his parents and his sister Jeanne have already been buried.
Singers Cali and Etienne Daho, with whom Dani shared the title Like a Boomerangshould always be present according to The Independent. A “discreet order service” will have to be deployed by the city of Perpignan for this particular day while waiting for the tribute to Dani in the city of Paris. The latter should take place on October 1, the date of his birthday: “A mass will a priori be celebrated at the Saint-Roch church, not far from the rue de Rivoli where Dani lived for a long time.“concludes the site.
