"Her deceased body just laid in the sand for hours, and I kept asking for at least a towel to cover her up because people were just passing by as if nothing was happening." "I sat next to her, put her in my arms and stayed talking to her, holding her." Redempta was a medical doctor and died aged 42, leaving her husband and two children, aged 17 and 15.
