Henri Perrette
1882–1942 (age 60)
Biography
Henri Perrette was born in 1882 and spent his life in Ivry-sur-Seine, where he contributed to the fabric of working-class life with quiet constancy and a sharp sense of the solidarity that defined the town.
When 1942 tested Ivry with occupation and repression, he stood with neighbors to maintain hope, and his death is recalled as part of the collective memory that honors ordinary courage.
