I have just learned with great sadness the passing of Mrs Liliane Bettencourt, daughter of Eugène Schueller, founder of the L'Oréal Group.
All of L'Oréal's employees join me in expressing our most sincere condolences and affectionate thoughts in these sad moments to Mrs. Françoise Bettencourt Meyers, Mr. Jean-Pierre Meyers, and their two sons Jean-Victor and Nicolas.
We all had a great admiration for Liliane Bettencourt who always looked after L'Oréal, the company and its employees, and was very attached to its success and development.
She has personally contributed greatly to its success for many years. Mrs Liliane Bettencourt was a great lady of beauty who has left us and whom we will never forget.

Liliane Bettencourt est décédée cette nuit à son domicile.
Elle aurait eu 95 ans le 21 octobre.
Ma mère est partie paisiblement.
Mon mari Jean-Pierre Meyers, nos enfants Jean-Victor et Nicolas partageons ensemble une infinie tristesse.
Dans ce douloureux moment pour nous, je tiens à rappeler, au nom de notre famille, notre entier attachement et notre fidélité à l'Oréal et à renouveler toute ma confiance à son président Jean-Paul Agon, comme à ses équipes dans le monde entier.
Mes parents n'ont pas seulement su accompagner le développement de l'Oréal. Ils ont également créé une Fondation caritative que je suis heureuse de présider aujourd'hui.
