Sounded like a decent Frenchman and French patriot. Au revoir and RIP.

Maurice Druon is one of my favorite writers. If you love historical fiction, beautifully written, and accurate down to the last detail, you will love LES ROIS MAUDIT or THE CURSED KINGS. The books are available in English.
One of my favorites is THE STRANGLED QUEEN, which takes place in the 13th century.

Je vous salue, Marie, pleine de grâces, le Seigneur est avec vous; vous êtes bénie entre toutes les femmes, et Jésus le fruit de vos entrailles, est béni. Sainte Marie, Mère de Dieu, priez pour nous pécheurs, maintenant, et à l’heure de notre mort
RIP Monsieur Druon

I have both the book series and the DVDs of Les Rois Maudits, Druon’s masterwork. Someday I hope my French will be good enough to read them. I was disappointed to find that the DVDs don’t even have FRENCH subtitles.
