Jimmy Curiazza and his Gibsonville family received the recognition from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
The Curiazzas received the recognition June 19 at an awards banquet to thank and recognize all groups that support the chapter.
To date, the family has raised more than $8,000 for the organization, primarily through holiday light shows at its Gibsonville home and from team marathons in which Jimmy’s wife, Tracy, takes part.
Their efforts in recent years honor the memory of Jimmy’s brother, Dean, who died of childhood leukemia during the 1967 holiday season.
