The Daily Astorian
On Oct. 11, at the Colum-
bia Memorial Hospital Founda-
tion’s annual Celebration of Giving,
Knight Cancer Collaborative Direc-
tor Chris Laman reported that the
new center has saved people with
cancer 3,700 trips out of the area to
receive radiation therapy in its first
year.
The evening culminated with the
presentation of three awards that honor
extraordinary leadership that embod-
ies the spirit of philanthropy, both at
the hospital and in the community.
Laman presented Dr. Jennifer
Lycette, medical director of CMH’s
medical oncology clinic, with the
Caduceus Award, which recognizes
a physician or provider who has
gone above and beyond to advance
philanthropy at CMH and in the
community.
Both Laman and CMH CEO Erik
Thorsen credited her for inspiring the
creation of the Cancer Collaborative.
Bill Garvin, chairman of the foun-
dation, presented the Terry Award to
Linda Jones.
This award recognizes a vol-
unteer leader who has gone above
and beyond to advance philan-
thropy at the hospital and in the
community.
The President’s Award recog-
nizes a hospital employee. The 2018
recipient was nurse Laura Parvi. She
was recognized for her tireless work
with the Clatsop County Relay for
Life.
Penny Cowden, executive direc-
tor of CMH Foundation said, “People
who donate their time, treasure and
talent make great things possible now
and for future generations. It’s a priv-
ilege to be able to take an evening to
just say, ‘Thanks.’”
