Yesterday, we gathered on the playground at Children’s of Mississippi with John and Jeanne Scarbrough and members of the Friends Board of Directors to remember Hudson Scarbrough, John and Jeanne’s son, in a place that now carries his name and memory.
John’s years of leadership with Friends, and the Scarbrough family’s continued support of our mission, have left a lasting impact on countless children and families across Mississippi.
Hudson’s life was brief, but the love and goodness that continue in his memory are lasting. This playground is a place where children can feel joy during their hospital stay, and we are so grateful that Hudson’s memory will live on there.
