In Loving Memory…

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Maria Antonieta Martins Ferreira. For the past six and half years, Antonieta has acted as the Coordenadora de Educação BFE- Brasil. She was involved in the administration of BFE courses, workshops and webinars in Brazil and helped guide in the development of our Portuguese language educational materials.  Antonieta spent her entire career in the field of education and her vast knowledge, skills and professionalism were tremendous assets to the BFE.

We will remember her as a colleague, mentor and friend whose warm personality, quiet confidence and helpful nature touched those of us who had the privilege of working with her and made us better for having known her.

We extend our deepest condolences to her family and friends. May she rest in peace.
