René Bichon was a man who loved life, even though life wasn't always easy for him. He liked kids, but never had a family. At 62, he was funny, tolerant and a true "bon vivant."

Today, his name became the final tweet from @ParisVictims.

René Bichon, 62. France. Loved life even though it wasn't always easy. Very funny. A "bon vivant." #enmémoire pic.twitter.com/hhsLwl89oq— En mémoire (@ParisVictims) January 5, 2016
