Sunday, March 15 at 12 pm (Noon)
Please join us at Atlanta Freethought Hall on Sunday, March 15 at 12 pm for a celebration of life for Freya Harris, a cherished community member of Atlanta Freethought Society (AFS), Sunday Assembly Atlanta (SAA), Mensa in Georgia, and more for many years.
Freya was described by Laura Ross, past president of AFS, as “vital to the secular community.” She hosted events with Atlanta Atheists and was a lively participant in just about any local discussion group in the nonreligious space for a decade or more. She proudly drafted a book on the logistical absurdities of Noah’s Ark that may never see publication.
Freya passed on March 16, 2025 suddenly at Grady Hospital. We gather a year later because many of her local connections in and around Atlanta did not learn of this until now.
The program is being planned and will include opportunities for anyone attending to share their memories of and experiences with Freya. Whether you knew her personally or simply wish to support a community marking this loss, you are welcome.
More formal attire is lightly encouraged but not required.
At the conclusion of the event we may visit the nearby Viking Alchemist Meadery in recognition of Freya’s Norse name and craft beer enthusiasm.
