In Loving Memory of Karen Victoria Marks - June 9, 1957 to March 7, 2019's Fundraising Page
WHY WE'RE FUNDRAISING WITH THE JIMMY FUND WALK TO FIGHT CANCER
After a four-month battle with rare chromophobe renal
cell carcinoma of the kidney, Karen passed away peacefully on March 7, 2019.
Karen spent the length of her treatment under the world renowned kidney
specialists on rare chromophobe carcinoma, Dr. Toni K. Choueiri MD, Director of
the Lank Center for Genitourinary Oncology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute
in Boston, Massachusetts.
In lieu of flowers, we ask that you please make a donation to Dr. Toni K
Choueriri and his research team at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. All
donations will go towards Dr. Choueriri's research in rare chromophobe renal
cell carcinoma. We hope that our contributions will help support the
development of better treatments so that other lives may be saved.
Karen is survived by her husband Terry, her son Ryan, and her daughter Victoria
Marks.
