A Lasting Legacy

Danna passed away on March 22, 2015 surrounded by family and loved ones. While she was a prominent figure in the health care industry, her true passion was in serving others—and she cared deeply for family, friends, colleagues and customers.

Danna established Mezin-Koats Colon Cancer Research to increase awareness for new treatment options to improve the quality of life and survivorship for people with advanced stage cancer. In doing so, her legacy of serving others continues… impacting the lives of colon cancer patients around the world.

Danna was the epitome of guts and grace. She will be dearly missed but never forgotten.


Danna’s Dream Continues

The wonderful work that Dick and Danna Mezin-Koats started with the Mezin-Koats Colon Cancer Research fund will continue.

Danna established a Guidance Council to carry her vision forward. This team is passionate about making her dreams for a future filled with hope, new treatments and someday a cure—come true!

We’re actively working on ways to raise awareness and money for the fund. If you have ideas or want to help, please send us a note at: MKCCR@yahoo.com.
