Michel Cheval s’en est allé.

C’est avec une immense tristesse que nous avons appris le décès de notre ami, ancien collègue et directeur, Michel Cheval, survenu hier.
Sa disparition nous laisse sans voix. Il est trop tôt encore pour dire son intégrité, sa discrétion, sa pertinence et son impertinence… sa bienveillance. Raconter tout ce qu’il a apporté à Contredanse et à la danse. Les mots viendront.
Mais aujourd’hui, nos souvenirs s’entrechoquent et c’est vers Ruth, sa compagne de toujours, et vers sa famille que vont toutes nos pensées.
