What can we do to remember Madeleine 10 years on?
« on: March 31, 2017, 09:43:34 PM »
The tenth anniversary of Madeleine's disappearance is only a few weeks away so I am inviting members to offer up suggestions as to how we can mark the anniversary.

perhaps we could have a day where we supported the authorities.....PJ and SY ....in finding out what happened to Maddie with no one making unfounded allegations towards maddie's parents....no one criticising her parents and no one gloating over their situation...is that too much too ask

How about a message of support for Madeleine. Full stop. We can all agree on that.

Madeleine's birthday I can just about understand perhaps marking but marking the night she disappeared from the face of the earth would be a tasteless, not to say worthless, gesture IMO.

It isn't a celebration but a sign of remembrance and respect for a little girl possibly lost forever.  The church in Luz will most probably be holding a service to mark the occasion.

Sadly not, it appears.  Perhaps it will just be a Supporter thing.

I would vote for not posting at all on the day, or only posting pictures of Madeleine.

I would concur with the former, and/or post photographs of missing children per se.

It is still tasteless. Marking the night a little girl met a terrible fate is appallingly crass. Surely you can see that?

I shall light a candle.  And probably say something that some will consider to be totally crass.  But I have hope, you see.  This is the story of my life.  And I can't say that I have ever been truly disappointed.

I'll add a post to my Facebook group expressing hope.

A candle is usually lit, privately, in someone's memory. That would be absolutely appropriate.

Public displays of remembrance for a child none of us knew on the day she met an awful fate is, crass, there is no other word for it.
