Anne Lurie was a great woman. Her personal insight into the human condition, and selfless dedication to making a difference in science and medicine, is realized today and everyday going forward for patients, nurses, scientists, physicians, and most of all for children. May her heart and spirit be with all of us as we try to help others with these most personal struggles.
Northwestern trustee and benefactor Ann Lurie has passed away at the age of 79: http://spr.ly/6042gqRaC “Ann Lurie was one of those truly remarkable philanthropists,” said Eric Neilson, MD. "She knew what Mary Lasker (an American health activist and philanthropist) before her also knew, that ‘people want the answer to many diseases, and they’re not going to get it without spending money, because money is frozen energy that unfreezes itself when you pay people to work.’"
