“Generous people know how to live, which is not to say they live with abandon, but that they live with the knowledge that life is very precious and very short,” actress and guest speaker Kate Mulgrew told attendees at the Minnesota Medical Foundation’s 2009 annual dinner October 26.
Mulgrew, who shared the moving story of her mother’s battle with Alzheimer’s disease, is a passionate supporter of Alzheimer’s prevention, including pioneering research at the University of Minnesota.
