Well written article that took me back 33 years. I was one year your senior
And still in close touch with my batchmates. The discipline, training and collaborative work ethics devoid of religious affiliations was the take away that still resonates today.
Good to hear from Mr Fournier.who used to run the dining hall like a clock work.
Will be glad to hear from others.

I enjoyed reading the story about Les Roches. All those memories… After Les Roches I worked for 23 years at Cesar Ritz, my wife Susan (from Rochester) still teaches in Bouveret. Georges Ortiz (RIP) worked with us in Brig…. Luetolf was with us at the House of Switzerland at the Athens 2004 Olympics!
I left Cesar Ritz in 2010. I run a nursing home near Monthey : senior living, the hospitality segment of the future! Susan and I celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary and we are busy grand parenting 6 grandkids (5 girls)
Speaking of multiculturalism : I am Swiss (actually Valaisan!), my wife is American, one of our daughter-in-law is Chinese, they have twins born in Chengdu, China. Our other daughter-in-law and our son adopted a 3-year old girl from Thailand…
Life is Good!
Herve Fournier

Thanks for writing this as we all can share it with our kids about LIFE AT LES ROCHES.
