Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA) Extends Condolences to Family and Friends of Famed Opera Singer Beverly Sills

Sills Passed Away Yesterday from Lung Cancer

WASHINGTON, July 3 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends of Beverly Sills," said LCA Board Member Deborah Morosini, MD and sister of the late Dana Reeve. "Ms. Sills was beloved not just for her extraordinary talent and stature within the arts community but also for her genuine and caring spirit that touched so many around her."

For smokers and non-smokers alike, lung cancer remains a deadly disease -- claiming more lives each year than breast, prostate and colon cancers -- combined. LCA is committed to reversing decades of stigma and neglect too long attached to lung cancer by ensuring compassion, support and research funding are provided at a level commensurate to its public health impact.

Lung Cancer Alliance is the only national non-profit dedicated exclusively to patient support and advocacy for people living with or at risk for lung cancer.
