The Marilyn D. Roman Memorial Fund

It is with gratitude and appreciation that we accept contributions being made in memory of Marilyn D. Roman (Illinois). Before Marilyn's passing (February 28, 2011) she designated the Lungs for Life Foundation to receive contributions in her memory and in lieu of flowers.

We learned Mrs. Roman's nephew, Todd, has cystic fibrosis (CF) and had a successful transplant (TX) in St. Louis -he is now 30 years old. This personal connection to both CF and transplant is why she desired for memorial contributions to be made to the Lungs for Life Foundation.

The Marilyn D. Roman Memorial Fund has been set up to receive contributions that will allow the Lungs for Life Foundation to assist cystic fibrosis individuals and families with both pre- and post- transplant expense needs.

All donations received under this fund will be acknowledged to the Roman Family.
