The Minette’s Angels Foundation was created in 2004 to honor the late Minette Grosso McKenna, a Verona resident and nurse who passed away from breast cancer in 2003. In addition to its scholarships, the Foundation supports breast cancer patients and their families, as well as breast cancer research and treatment facilities at Saint Barnabas Medical Center. The Minette’s Angels Foundation will hold its Celebration of Angels gala on Thursday, April 26, at The Park Savoy in Florham Park, and will honor the Reverend Michael A. Hanly, Myriad Genetic Laboratories and Dr. and Mrs. Michael Scoppetuolo.
