Salute to Dana Reeve
March 08, 2006

As most of you probably already know, Dana Reeve, widow of Christopher Reeve and chair of the Christopher Reeve Foundation (an MWW Group client), passed away on Monday evening, the result of lung cancer. Since being brought on to work with the Foundation in the Summer of 2005, we have seen the countless hours and level of commitment that Dana worked to bring progress to treatments and (hopefully) an eventual cure for paralysis.

Dana's consistently positive attitude and strength, even during the time of her own personal adversity with lung cancer, serves as a positive model of perseverance that we should all look to in our own challenges. On behalf of our whole firm, I would like to offer our condolences for Dana's family, friends, and the Christopher Reeve Foundation.

It has been one of the highlights in the history of MWW Group to work with the Foundation, President Kathy Lewis and Dana. Dana and her legacy has inspired all of us to work with an even greater sense of purpose and we remain deeply committed to fulfilling the legacy of Christopher and Dana Reeve by helping the Foundation accomplish its vital goals and "Go Forward."
