    Au revoir Florent J'avais tellement hâte de te revoir sur Paris pour que tu me racontes tes aventures aux US. Ton départ est un choc tant j'ai apprécié faire ce bout de chemin de vie professionnelle et amicale avec toi. J'ai aimé discuter avec toi de tout de rien, de nos projets respectifs à nos pauses café, avec une pinte de bière, autour d'un de nos déjeuners aveyronnais. Toutes mes pensées vont à ta famille et à tes proches. Reste cette belle personne que où que tu sois maintenant. Jérémie

    What an incredible soul Florent was. I still can’t believe that he is gone. His pleasing personality, exceptional work ethic and an ever-supportive attitude had got him many admirers at the workplace. There was a lot to be learnt from him. I am truly honored and blessed to have known him as a friend and colleague. I have spent one the best phase of my working life with him. I am going to cherish all the good times spent together from the Friday lunch time conversations at farmers market, to sharing forthcoming travel schedules and the Netflix recommendations and the famous conspiracy theories in the world. I was lucky to be a part of his life when Ewen was born last year. I shared a strong emotional bond with him. He will forever remain in my heart. My deepest condolences are with his family. May God give Emilie and the kids enough strength to bear this irreparable loss.

    When I first met Florent I felt a special kinship. He was such a positive guy, and over time I had begun to think of him as the “Happy Frenchman” in my mind. No matter what was going on, or how busy he was, he always started meetings with a cheery “Good Morning!” or my personal favorite of “Happy Friday!”. In short, he made the world a better place. I will miss learning from him (he knew so much!), chatting about racing, and hearing about his adventures. He was a great mentor and will truly be missed. Words are insufficient to express my deepest condolences for his family during this heartbreaking time. I wish you all strength and comfort and I believe God and Florent are with you all.

    Une nouvelle choquante. Nous sommes terriblement attristés. Nous pensons à vous, Émilie et Lyssana.

    Florent will be truly missed! He has left footprints on the hearts of many of his teammates. He was a wonderful genuinely kind soul, always willing to lend a helping hand with anything he could and always had a smile for everyone to brighten our day. I pray that God may give strength to his family and loved ones during this painful time. Please accept my deepest sympathy on the loss of a wonderful husband, father, brother, son and friend.

    We are all still in disbelief over the news of Florent' passing. Florent was a kind, generous, polite, intelligent and loving family man with an infectious smile. Florent was always willing to help and had a large heart. He always had a twinkle in his eye whenever talking about his family and was a proud Papa. While we miss him dearly and have endured a terrible loss, our hearts are broken for the family especially his beautiful little ones. Thank you Florent for being a wonderful person. Missing you so much..

  • bgodet

    Florent était positif, bienveillant, souriant, attentif, toujours de bonne humeur même dans les situations difficiles et c'était un collègue avec lequel on avait envie de travailler, de discuter, de partager. Il va beaucoup manquer à nos équipes. Nous avions échangé sur nos expériences américaines et beaucoup rit des aléas de l'adaptation. J'ai du mal à croire qu'il soit parti. Je pense à sa famille, lui présente mes plus sincères condoléances dans ces moments si douloureux. Mes pensées et mes prières sont avec eux, en espérant que le temps allège leurs souffrances.

  • armstrongns

    Florent touched so many people with his smile and endless positivity and he will be dearly missed. My heart is breaking for Florent's wife and children and all his family and friends who will no longer get to see Florent's smile. To Emilie and the children, I hope you find some comfort in the outpuring of love amongst this tradegy. My deepest sympathies.

  • chensui

    Thinking about you the last few days and speaking with those that knew you, the memories are of that famous smile, positivity and twinkle in your eye. We were lucky to have known you.

  • reynaldo

    Dear Florent, There's never a day that you don't have a smile on your face whenever I would see you in LA. You're such a nice person and very pleasant to work with. You're always ready to help whenever I would ask you questions about B-One. You're also very knowledgeable and always ready to share your knowlege with us. We miss you a lot here. I pray that you're with our Lord now, and we have you interceding on our behalf from where you are. My sincerest condolences to your family, especially to your wife and your two beautiful children. -Rey Macatula

  • gaudefroy

    J'ai eu la chance de croiser Florent dans les locaux de BISAM Paris et à chaque fois on sentait cette gentillesse en lui. Ce qu'il a apporté par sa gentillesse et son professionnalisme va beaucoup nous manquer. J'ai une pensée pour sa femme Emilie , ses enfants et sa famille dans ces moments difficiles. Mes sincères condoléances Olivier Gaudefroy.

    Lorsque j'ai appris la terrible nouvelle je n'ai pas réussi à y croire et je n'y arrive toujours pas... Florent, Nous avons travaillé ensemble pendant 2 ans et demi, ton bureau faisait face au mien. Pendant ces années de collaboration je ne t'ai jamais vu de mauvaise humeur, tu gardais toujours ce même sourire communicatif. Tu m'a appris beaucoup et a fait preuve d'une grande patience et d'une générosité sans faille à mon égard. Je t'en remercie. Ce que je garde de ces quelques années ou j'ai eu la chance de te côtoyer ce sont les pauses café ou nos sujets de conversations allaient de la dernière série à la mode aux dernières comptines pour bébé qui nous restent dans la tête toute la journée. Je garde en mémoire aussi les déjeuners du vendredi midi ainsi que les quelques pintes de bières consommées après le travail avec la " bande des consultants". Je ressens une profonde tristesse que tu ne sois plus de ce monde. J'espere que tu es en paix. Mes plus sincères condoléances à toute ta famille, en particulier à tes parents, ta femme ainsi que tes enfants. Je vous souhaite de trouver le courage de surmonter cette terrible épreuve. Amandine Boulay

    Conversations with Florent always started and ended with big smiles. All the water cooler conversations from an introduction to the French sport of pétanque to discussing his favorite places to visit will be cherished. Even on the most challenging days he would have this disarming smile behind which was a quiet confidence from a wealth of knowledge he carried with him to throw ideas at any situation the team needed his help with. He may have gone too soon, but his memories will keep us company - his kind nature, his smile, his unique sense of humor. He was a personification of a word he once told me about - 'Joie de vivre'. I ve taken many a leaf out of Florent s example and am privileged he shared a few moments with me. My deepest condolences to his family and to every one of us who will miss his calming cheerful presence.

    J'ai rencontre Florent pour la premiere a Paris chez un client quelques mois apres avoir rejoint BISAM. Je n'etais pas tres a l'aise mais il m'a tout de suite mis en confiance. Il etait plein de bienveillance. Nous avions demenage a Los Angeles le meme jour (la photo que j'ai ajoute a ete prise ce jour la). Pendant 2 ans a Los Angeles, j'ai appris a mieux connaitre Florent. Il etait d'une extreme gentillesse et toujours de bonne humeur. C'etait vraiment agreable de travailler avec lui. Il va nous manquer. Je presente mes très sincères condoléances a la famille.

    Florent was such a wonderful ray of sunshine. Every morning, without hesitation, he’d come in and before he sat down “good morning!” and if I was on a call, I’d get the “good morning!” quietly, with a wave, along with his bright and friendly smile. He was smart, helpful, humble and funny. He always made you feel comfortable and you could ask him any question. The week before his passing, he spoke to me about his family. You could feel his happiness. You can tell how much love he had for them in his voice (any time he spoke about them). With deepest sympathy, may God give Emilie, the little ones and his loved ones strength and courage.

    Sometimes incidents happen which makes one think about existence of that super power! This is no less than one such unfortunate incident. Getting to know Florent and his family through BISAM family gatherings was one of the best things that happened while I was in LA. The simplicity and the perfect smiles didn’t take much time to know Florent, Emilie the kids at a personal level. It breaks my heart every-time a little bit more when I think that Florent is not around us anymore. For Emilie and the kids, I just pray that they get the strength to get through this difficult time. I do wish I was somewhere closer to be able to emotionally support them in this time of immense pain. Florent will always be missed deeply and will be part of wonderful memories I built when I was in LA. My deepest sympathies and lots of love to the wonderful family he left behind. Rashmi

    A Florent, J'ai eu la chance de travailler avec toi pendant des années. On a eu des moments difficiles mais tu les rendais facile et il suffit de lire tous les messages déposés ici pour comprendre pourquoi. C'est grâce à tout cela qu'on s'appréciait aussi en dehors du travail. J'essaierai de garder en mémoire tous ces moments et tu vois je t'écris directement parce que moi non plus je ne veux pas y croire. Je pense à ta famille. Amitiés, à la vie. Nicolas P.

  • ashutoshphani

    I had the opportunity to work with Florent for a very brief period of time. He was a very very positive person and always had a smile on his face. He was funny and a very nice person. It is really unfortunate that we have lost such a wonderful person so early in his life. My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.

    Une pensée très forte pour cette jolie petite famille qui avait agrandi notre cercle des familles françaises de Lila. Cette annonce nous brise le coeur. Nous pensons très fort à toi, Emilie, à ta petite Lyssana qui manque à ses copains de CP et à ton petit loulou. Nous t'envoyons nos prières les plus précieuses, Florent, pour que tu reposes en paix. Anne-Laure et Pascal Raphaël, Eva et Louise

  • jmhoang

    I have no words to describe how shocked I am to read that terrible news... I did not work closely with Florent and despite that, he still stopped by my desk when he was at the office to say hi and take some news. He was always positive, calm and manged to spread good vibes around him. I'll always remember his last day at the BISAM Paris office, when he stopped to my desk just to say goodbye and we finally ended up discussing for 30 mins where I could see how excited he was to start this new chapter in the U.S. For sure he will be missed by everyone who had the chance to meet him. My sincere condolences to his family. Jean-Michel

    Florent, Je n'ai pas trouvé d'autres moyens d'exprimer mon chagrin à travers ce petit poème (FLORENT). Je vois déjà ton sourire à la lecture de celui-ci... Je l'ai écrit d'un seul jet, pour être en parfaite synchronisation avec toi. C'est à dire avec la brutalité de l’événement. F in de journée, deux hommes sortent d'un immeuble L 'un prend à droite, le second le regarde O ù vas-tu comme ça ? s'exclame le second R ue Cammartin, répond le premier E h bien ! tu te trompes de chemin rétorque le second N 'oublie pas que je ne connais pas le quartier se défend le premier T u devrais me demander mon jeune ami. Je vais t'accompagner, suis moi ! réplique le second Grâce à nos dernières conversations, le timbre de ta voix résonne encore en moi... L'écriture passe, la musique succède : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-F_LfbdK0PM Ton fidèle ami, Olivier D.
