In Memoriam
Alan M Langley ( 17 Sep 1944 ~ 13 Jul 2019)
Elaine Vegotsky has brought us the sad news that Al passed away this past Saturday.

Al will be remembered as one of the founding members and the face of the Association for many years. He served as its Executive Director for 17 years before retiring in May of 2015. He was passionate about the ACFI. He got it up and running and put a lot of his energy into making it successful.

There are very few members who have not been ushered through the certification process by Al. His advice has been much appreciated. A wealth of knowledge gone. He will be missed. May he rest in peace.

Our sincerest condolences to his family. More...
