Remembering Joan

With great sadness, we announce the death of our long time AFN member, board member and friend Joan Harshman, on July 1 st 2023.

Joan was instrumental in organizing the French Conversation group on Saturdays many years ago.

It started in a coffee shop with just a handful of participants back in the nineties, and thanks to Joan and her passion for French, became one of our most popular events over the years.

We offer her family and friends our warmest sympathies.
