The town honored Morgan, a 6-year-old Port Washington resident, who is the 2019 Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s “Girl of the Year.” Morgan recently completed four years of chemotherapy for leukemia and will be starting kindergarten this fall. As the “Girl of the Year,” she and her family have raised awareness and attend events to share Morgan’s story.
