Toutou was one of Project Living Hope's passionate coaches who volunteered his time on the property. If there was a soccer game or activity on the property he was there. Unfortunately, Toutou passed away too soon, only 44 years old. Over the last few years, Toutou struggled with his health, often spending a lot of time going to see different doctors hoping they could figure out what was going on with him. Haiti's medical infrastructure has been in disarray for many years and most clinics and hospitals have very little resources to truly evaluate and treat patients. The limited number of medical providers makes it hard as most clinics are often overrun with patients. The insecurity and instability have only added to this problem as the gangs make it hard for people to travel to the few hospitals in the country that have any resources and could have helped a patient like Toutou. Toutou left behind two young kids.
The PLH staff, players, and community honor Toutou for who he was and the lives he impacted.
We will miss you Toutou. Rest in peace in the loving arms of the Father, knowing your suffering in this world is over.
