'Every Second Counts'
Indeed, Missy illuminated the
lives of her loved ones, even as her
health diminished. Last March, she
shared her passion for Israel with
her husband and 8-year-old daugh-
ter, Hannah, through a Chicago
Jewish Federation Mission. Hannah
said the experience was one of her
favorite memories of her mom.
Missy's devotion also extended
to her large circle of friends, said
her close confidant, LUNGevity
Vice President Jill Feldman. When
Feldman's daughter fell ill a few
years ago, Missy was a tremendous
support, cooking dinners for the
family and making frequent hospi-
tal visits. "Missy did all this while
undergoing radiation for nine
brain tumors," Feldman recalled.
With courage, grace and dig-
nity, Missy lived her life according
to LUNGevity's mantra, "Every
Second Counts," Feldman added.
"Most parents think of them-
selves as role models for their
children:' remarked Missy's father,
Edward Lumberg. "But for Sherri
and me, Missy was our role model."
Missy Zagon is survived by
her husband, Glenn; daugh-
ter, Hannah; parents, Sherri
and Edward Lumberg of West
Bloomfield; brother and sister-in-
law, Michael and Sandy Lumberg
of Farmington Hills; nephew and
