News of September 26th 2002

At 11h00 am, Dominique Tailliez gives us the sad news of Philippe Tailliez’s death. He was the President of Honor and the founder of our organisation. At ninety seven years old, the one who guided us through our first steps in archaeology and served as our role model passed away. We have a thought for his family and all those who have known him and have been touched by his humanity and vision.
We will always remember him as one of the pioneers in scuba diving and the « batyscaphes » adventure. His friends and family will always remember his modesty, his attentive nature.
