Note* IN MEMORIAM Monica E. Warner
It is with profound sorrow that The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation Board of Directors and staff announce the death of Monica Warner, a driving force behind the foundation for over 20 years. Mrs. Warner died suddenly on Friday, August 7, 2009. We extend our deepest sympathy to Richard R.P. Warner, M.D., and his family on the passing of his beloved wife, Monica.
Since 1987 Mrs. Warner served as CCF’s Director of Development and Research Coordinator. She also served on the Foundation’s Board of Directors. Mrs. Warner was instrumental in helping bring about the carcinoid cancer/neuroendocrine tumor support groups throughout the United States and was extremely proud to see the number of support groups grow from the first support group in 1996 to over 40 groups today.
Mrs. Warner was also solely responsible for The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation's outstanding website. She created the site in 1996 and it grew under her leadership to serving individuals from 119 countries worldwide. Nearly 1,000,000 people have visited the CCF website since its inception.
Donations can be made in Mrs. Warner's memory to The Carcinoid Cancer Foundation, 333 Mamaroneck Avenue, #492, White Plains, NY 10605, or donate online with a Visa, MasterCard or American Express, or by calling 888-722-3132, Tuesday through Thursday, 10 am to 4 pm, Eastern Time.
