December 2008
When I
created this website in 2008 it
was not just to write down facts
about the Catherine Saga,
but also to entertain those who
came by and have a look at the
Catherine de Montsalvy website.
Blogs
or websites had to be created by
its owners and facts were not as
easily to be added or just
copied from other sources ! My
visitors interacted with me and
showed their delight by
supporting me with sending
material which could be useful
for making this an attractive
place to visit.
For that reason, I created out
of gratitude on December 2008,
(together with my sister Evelyne/Laluna,
who designed the prize), the
Catherine de Montsalvy Award
!
The reaction of the visitors was
fabulous at that time.
Of course it is
not the OSCAR or another famous AWARD, yet this one comes
from the heart...! |

Aleksandra from
Costa Rica (Poland)
|
It was not
easy to choose who should be the first winner of
the new C.M.F AWARD. Aleksandra is from Poland,
but lives with her family in Costa Rica. She
packed all her Catherine books in her trunk to
bring them to 'Costa Rica.' *
She is also one of the
very first website visitors we had and is until
this day a very faithful follower. Thank you Aleksandra for your kindness and sharing
with us so much
material. For the time you invest, sending us photos from
our stars,
which you found on the Net or especially took
screenshots or book covers, email adresses
and other awesome items concerning the world of
Catherine de Montsalvy.
* July 2021
Alas our contact broke a few years ago as
sometimes happens - and as far as I know
Aleksandra does not live in Costa Rica anymore.
Should she see this entry, it would be lovely to
hear from her again..

Frédérique from
France
|
The
Award goes to Frédérique, who has had at first a BLOG (now the official
Juliette Benzoni
Website) concerning everything about the world of Juliette
Benzoni.
She is also the one who translated for many years my English texts for my
French Catherine
website.
She surprises me still from time to time with new
Countries, who translated the Catherine Novels - we
started at first with hunting the covers of Juliette
Benzoni's books. I am not
calling her for nothing the book hunter number No° 1 !
Since
I have chosen Frédérique
in February 2009 to have the AWARD - a lot has happened!
Juliette babtised us ' Les filles des grands chemins' of
the many times we travelled to see her at Saint-Mandé. JouJou as is her nickname, is my soulmate. Together we had been invited numerous times
to see our
beloved Juliette Benzoni and were there
when her daughter Anne, had need of us on
February 2016...
One of our favorite Slogan between us : WHAT NEXT, WHAT NEXT ???

Katarzyna from
Poland
|
With great
pleasure we like to announce the name of our new winner
that of 'Katarzyna'. A journalist from Poland. She
has also been with us from the very beginning following,
us faithfully from youtube to the day I launched
this website in 2008.
Katarzyna (which is the Polish way to say Catherine) has
spoilt us with photos, articles, important e-mail
adresses and last but not least helped the Beginner that
I was in 2008 when something really looked aweful on the
website ☺ |

Jean Brittain from Scotland
|
Our newest Award winner is from Scotland.
Jean is maybe the very first person I got in contact via youtube
because of my Catherine clips! There is a very
interesting detail to say about her. She comes from the precise place where
Sir
Hugh Kennedy of Ardstinchar had his castle
Ardstinchar! Jean has written
in the meantime the very successful book: Hugh Kennedy of
Ardstinchar - Joan of Arc's Captain.
All of you, who have read
Catherine, might remember
the fiery Scottish Chevalier who came to replace Arnaud de Montsalvy at Carlat
in BELLE CATHERINE. Without
you dear Jean, we would not have known all these many extra
information about that famous Scottish Knight. A man who was one
of 'Joan of Arc's captains' and who had 'King Charles VII' trust. It
is really my outmost pleasure to give this symbolic Award to you
my friend. |

Hélène Rouille
from France
|
With great pleasure and joy we like
to present our dear friend Hélène from France, a special
Christmas surprise! During the year, Hélène has spoiled us
many a time with her precious and beautiful
creations concerning the
world of 'Catherine' and 'Le Gerfaut (The Lure of the
Falcon).
Her entries in our chat-box, guest
book or her personal mails, are sweet, amusing, and full of
life. In reality a
Le Gerfaut fan, she adopted our 'Catherine and Arnaud'
likewise and has become one of our most faithful visitors
and friend.
Thank you Hélène and welcome in the
Hall of Fame ! |

Catherine
Kasińska
from Poland
|
With great pleasure, my sister and I announce our next C.M.F Award
winner. It is none other than the beautiful and lovely Catherine
from
Poland. She shares the name with our
heroine, and was one of the first visitors who commented on my youtube clips, at
a time when there existed absolutely nothing about our
beloved Catherine, Juliette Benzoni's
first
heroine on youtube!
She followed with interest how I prepared to
launch
my website - send me words of encouragement.
She herself is a very faithful fan of Catherine and adores their characters.
Catherine is a journalist and she speaks superbly
English. I am very happy to call her my friend and it was time
I remembered to show my
gratitude towards such a faithful friend.
