Tito Traversa - Rest in Peace

Tito Claudio Traversa died today after having fought very hard for three days at the Grenoble hospital, after a groundfall from some 25 meters in Orpierre. He was together with his gym's sport group, without his parents. A couple of days before, the 12 year old did his fourth 8b+. "Our little big Tito is now an Angel and he gave his organs to let other kids live. Forever in his mum's and dad's heart".
