Great excitement at the Sainte-Élisabeth nursing home. Surrounded by his friends and residents of the establishment, Dino Ferreti celebrated his hundredth birthday, a few weeks late, to reunite him with other residents who celebrated theirs that same day.
Dino was born on July 7, 1921 in Vado, municipality of Mamzano in the province of Bologna in Italy. Country he will leave to come and work in France, where he will obtain his naturalization in 1939. He will do his military service there. The vagaries of war will take him to Germany and to return to Italy. In 1945, he moved to Thionville, where he met the woman he married two years later. From this union will be born two children, a boy and a girl. Dino had a busy life working until his retirement as a warehouse keeper at the Schnitzler company in Yutz. This life of hard work has not prevented him from taking his family on vacation to Les Sables-d’Olonne every year. After a long union of 64 years, he found himself widowed and joined the nursing home in Basse-Ham, July 25, 2019. For the staff of the establishment, he is a simple man and always happy, but also athletic, because in all weathers (rain, wind, sun), he takes a daily walk.
Residents and staff sang a happy birthday to her to an accordion tune. Jean-Paul Caspard, vice-president of the CCAS, accompanied by Nathalie Blanvarlet gave him, on behalf of their organization and the municipality, a gift made up of local specialties.
