Among the victims of the Nov. 13 attacks in Paris were three sets of sisters, all visitors, all drawn to the City of Light. Identical twins Charlotte and Emilie Meaud, 30, were described as inseparable, although they had separate apartments and were pursuing different careers. Charlotte, with an economics degree, was helping to build business for a start-up. Emilie, an architect, worked for a prominent firm that designed migrant housing, among its public projects. They were catching up over drinks at Le Carillon bar when they were killed.
Anna Petard-Lieffrig,24,24, was a graphic designer who had interned with Reporters Without Borders. She designed the website for her sister, Marion, 30, a Sorbonne master's student of French and Italian musicology, who had spent a year in Barcelona and was about to spend a year in Palermo. They were out to dinner at Le Petit Cambodge.
And Halima Saadi, 36, the mother of two young children, was visiting from Senegal and celebrating the birthday of her sister, Hodda, 35, at La Belle Equipe.
"It is a hard, hard thing for a mother to bury her child," said Rene Arnaud, the mayor of the twins' home town. "To bury two is unthinkable."
