Restrictions oblige, it is in small groups that were organized Monday evening the farewell to Maïcka, who died the day before at the age of 73 years. The body of the singer, founder of the trio “3 stars of the galaxy” and retired from the town hall, had been exhibited in the Fareroi district, at the Rotonde nicely decorated by officers of the town.
Prayers and religious songs punctuated the vigil, and after a speech from the tavana, her friends also recounted how they had known Maïcka, what she had brought them, and how much they already missed her. Finally Tuesday morning, the artist was accompanied to her last home in the family cemetery at PK12 in Mahina. Only family and a few longtime friends were able to attend the moving ceremony and again bathed in music. In the end, all that was missing was Maïcka’s inimitable voice.
