A Hero’s Last Journey Home -help with repatriation

On May 25th, while on holiday, my father, Alexandru Melei, lost his life in a final act of unimaginable courage. He drowned while trying to save two twin sisters who were in danger.

He didn’t hesitate. He did what he had always done—as a medical assistant, as a father, as a man—he stepped forward to help, even at the cost of his own life.

That was who he was: selfless, brave, devoted. He died a hero, but our hearts are shattered.

We are left with an unbearable void. My mother, who stood by his side for a lifetime and was with him during his last moments, is devastated and lost without him.

We want to bring him back home—to be laid to rest with dignity, surrounded by the love of his family and his homeland.

From the depths of our grief, we thank you for your kindness, your messages, and your support.

May God guide his soul and reward his sacrifice with eternal peace.

At this moment, we do not have any official documents, as there is an ongoing investigation.

However, we are including a link to the official statement released by the police to provide transparency and confirm the tragic events: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1C8SwmD12Z/

Thank you for your understanding and support during this difficult time.
