In Memory of Jessica Lorman-White

Jessica Ann Lorman-White was born and raised in Sunnyvale, CA.  She graduated from Fremont High School, went on to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Global Studies and Business Economics from UC Santa Barbara, and completed a Master’s degree in International Studies at George Washington University in Washington DC. 

April 2017, Jessica was diagnosed with Wilms tumor, a very rare kidney cancer in adults. She had just celebrated her 30th birthday.  Even with an incredibly positive outlook during the more than two years of treatment battling this cancer, Jessica sadly passed away at her home in Washington DC on October 29, 2019.  Her husband John was with her.  She was a strong, positive, radiant, loving, and extraordinarily-caring young woman. Jessica will always be remembered for the very special person she was and the gift she gave all of us to have known her.  Jess’s family and many friends were so important to her.

Jessica gave in so many ways.  She chose to work in the field of International Development to order to help others and make the world a better place.  She donated her body and tumor tissue to science, wanting to support Wilms Tumor research in hopes of finding new treatment protocols and a cure for this rare cancer.  She wanted to help others to overcome the disease and prevent other families from the heart-breaking sadness and loss her family and friends are now facing.

To further her wishes, please consider donating to the International WAGR Syndrome Association.  Under “My donation is for:” please select “In Memory of Jessica Lorman-White.”  All donations in Jessica’s memory will go to the “The Amy Marshall Research Fund,” which supports Wilms Tumor research.  Our hope is that these funds will help find a cure for this terrible disease, which affects both children and adults.
