After her husband was diagnosed with a terminal case of Mesothelioma, Marian found herself in a crushing isolation until his death two years later. Inspired by her own situation, she founded a caregiving center in her husband, Ken's, name. After partnering with Northern Westchester Hospital and raising over $500,000, the new center opened in 2007.
In September 2014, Marian's efforts were further recognized with a "Caregiver of the Year" award from the Caregiver Action Network. Today, the center provides support to those who take care of the sick and dying.
