On May 1, 2021, the Laurie Melchionda Foundation hosted the first annual Walk for Laurie’s Love of Life at Town Hall in Braintree.

We would like to thank everyone who came out to support us and our mission to Spread Laurie’s Love of Life. What happened to Laurie is unimaginable. I know that many of you think differently opening your door. Hearing Laurie’s story has changed all of us in someway. A beautiful hardworking woman at the prime of her life, taken by evil. It never should have happened and never should again. Now that we know this, let’s start looking out for one another a little more and a little harder. Maybe we can make a difference knowing there are many more eyes open. We can all try our very best to spread love in memory of Laurie and her love of life.
