The Ultimate Munronian, Mr. Elias Azan

It is with a profound sense of loss that we announce the passing of the Chairman of the School Board, Mr. Elias Azan. The Munro College family mourns the passing of this exemplary leader, husband, father and friend. Mr. Azan’s passing is particularly significant to the Munro College family, as he served the institution with dignity, grace and unwavering commitment, for what seemed like a lifetime.

Mr. Azan was an extraordinary Munronian who believed in the potential of every student. He used every available opportunity to motivate both students and staff to strive for excellence. He also possessed a phenomenal love and passion for Munro College, serving previously as the President of the Munro College Old Boys’ Association and eventually as Chairman of the Board of Governors. He exemplified efficiency, accountability, transformational leadership and a genuine embodiment of the ultimate Munronian.

This is a personal loss not only for his wife and the rest of his immediate family, but also for the Munro College fraternity. Please continue to pray for his family at this difficult time and remember the wider Munro family in your prayers as we too share in this period of bereavement.
