“Our” ANNIE RAVACH sadly passed away this week, she was much loved & will be greatly missed…
Dear Annie,
I, like every Dragon Sailor and Friends of Sailing all over the World are deeply saddened to hear you have left us. You were instrumental in making our Douarnenez experience “come alive”. The way you assisted the great Louis Urvois and the Society of the Regatta’s volunteers was amazing. My good fortune has been to know you since 1999 when the first Grand Prix was introduced onto the International Dragon Circuit. I, like you, have attended every G.P. since then and have always appreciated your friendship, organisation, helpfulness and generosity but above all your smile…
Of course your expertise and involvement with the Dragon Class did not just stop in Douarnenez, as you also helped run events from Cazuax to Cannes… But it is inside the big White Tent which hosted the thousands of International Sailors over the 17 years that your legacy will remain in our minds and in our hearts. No problem is a problem when there is a solution… You had all the answers to our questions, nothing was ever too much trouble and you always had time for us…
I have read the hundreds of comments and memories of you that have been posted on social media which show how much you were appreciated and loved. Indeed Tommy Muller contacted me recently to ask me to “Thank You” on behalf of all the lucky sailors who had the pleasure and opportunity to be guided by you and receive so much of your valuable time and effort.
We will miss you Annie but you will never be forgotten…….. Stavros x
