Team Queen Laurie Jean, based in Mystic, was recognized with the Dana-Farber Employee Award for “Pacesetter Power and Rookie of the Year” for the team’s efforts in the Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk. Team Queen Laurie Jean was among a select group of awardees recognized for their fundraising and commitment in the 35th Jimmy Fund Walk event, held this past October.
The team walked in memory of “the lovely queen Laurie Jean,” who passed from ovarian cancer in 2021, walking in honor, gratitude, solidarity, and compassion with fellow survivors, patients, and their loved ones. They will be walking again in 2024.
