In Memoriam

It is with the deepest sadness that we say goodbye to Pascale Moehrle, Oceana’s Executive Director and Vice President in Europe from 2019 to 2025.

Our hearts go out to Pascale’s husband and companion of four decades, her beloved daughter, her brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces, nephews, and her numerous friends. She will be dearly remembered and sorely missed by all who have had the privilege to know her.

The entire team at Oceana will always remember Pascale as a strong leader, a generous mentor and colleague, and a loyal friend. She steered Oceana through good and difficult times in Europe, and was the foremost champion and supporter of the team’s achievements. She cared deeply for each individual and offered kindness and inspiration in equal measure.

Pascale shone a light on everyone she met. She was pure joy and freedom, and the life of every party. We will forever cherish the memory of her smile, her boundless joy – and her legendary dance moves.

Oceana’s debt of gratitude to Pascale is too great for words. We will honour her legacy by continuing to pursue our mission, and by bringing into it the joy and enthusiasm that she brought to everything she did.

Farewell, dearest Pascale. You will be forever in our hearts.
