My deepest and most sincere condolences to both the close friends and family of Pierre. When I first started working at Alpima I had so many doubts about myself and my work, it was Pierre who had first spoken to me, as he did with so many new hires at Alpima, his precense and confidence resonated with me. From just one conversation with Pierre he could so easily put across his character to you and make you feel comfortable. An assuringly genuine man. What he has built here and is vision will surely live on, keeping as close to the values set by Pierre himself. He will be sorely missed, but never forgotten.
