We were deeply saddened by the passing away of Janine Haddad.

As a Vice President of International and European Affairs of the Ile de France Region, Janine Haddad played a very important role by the side of the President of Metropolis, contributing tirelessly to promotion of the Ile de France Region in the international arena.

Janine Haddad´s valiant battle against her illness, facing it with great courage and dignity, has deeply touched us all.

Her passing has left us with the feeling of emptiness within our association, where she has worked with outstanding commitment as a Regional Secretary;of Europe. Her enthusiasm and dedication will be always remembered, her kindness and generosity will live in our hearts.

On behalf of all members of Metropolis we would like to extend our deepest and heartful sympathies to her husband, children, relatives and friends.
