“And finally thank you to my family and employees who have tolerated my absences from home and work, at all hours of the day and night. Without the support of the ones you love and those in your everyday life this position would be have been unbearable,” said Lacoste.
“Thank you very much for allowing me this personal moment,” said Lacoste.
