It is with deep regret that I have to report the passing away of Ms. Jean Broggini, former
FAFICS Secretary-Treasurer.
Ms. Broggini has been working in that position since 1996 until 2002.

When informed of her demise, Mr. George Saddler, former FAFICS President, wrote: ‘…
as the Secretary of FAFICS Jean was very agreeable, competent, dedicated,
friendly, intelligent, knowledgeable, loyal and willing to work as required. FAFICS
benefited from her efforts and labors. May she rest tranquilly in peace.’

I provided technical assistance to the FAFICS Secretariat in 2000-2002. It was during
this period that Jean initiated the FAFICS database which contained contact information
for the FAFICS member associations.
