Ms. Fouriezos drew on her past experiences and knowledge gained through her work as a journalist and her membership on the Board of the Ontario Film Development Corporation to make a significant contribution to the NFB. She will be long remembered by everyone who knew her. I extend my sincere sympathy to Ms. Fouriezos' family for their loss."
