The carnival society mourns the loss of their honorary dance officer and 2nd chairman of the dance group "Die Fidelen Sandhasen", René Rössel.

The Great of 1823

"The Great of 1823 Carnival Society" is one of the carnival societies in the Cologne Carnival.

It was founded in 1823.

Cologne Carnival Society mourns: "We all hoped that a miracle would happen"

The honorary officer died after a serious illness, "which he endured with admirable humility to the end".

"But we all hoped that a miracle would happen!" It says on Sunday, January 8th, as reported by 24RHEIN.

“We are all deeply shocked.

When a person has to leave us forever, it is painful for all their loved ones and friends.

But when a young person has to leave at the age of 37, it's unbelievable," the company said on Facebook.

"We all got to know René as a reliable and straightforward friend."

And that's not all: "Without his tireless commitment, today's great and close cooperation between Die Grosse von 1823 and the dance group Fidele Sandhasen would not have come about." for the association Tanzcorps Fidele Sandhasen.

René had a big heart and his enthusiasm for our Fastelovend was very contagious!"
