Her tireless dedication to truth and unwavering commitment to justice earned her the status of an icon in the field.

This common starting point highlights their intertwined paths, which would later see them become legendary figures in Haitian media, leaving a lasting impact on the industry.
Though they are no longer with us, their indomitable spirits will continue to live on, forever etched in the annals of Haitian journalistic history.
