On December 15th, 2024, the Lourenco family was in a serious car accident on their way to church. Tragically, Matthew, Madelynn, Daniel, and Jennifer Lynn Lourenco all died from the crash leaving only Emma Lourenco with a long road to recovery after surviving the crash. The Lourencos touched many lives in their work, school, and church communities. Matthew was a member of the Pitman Cross Country team during his freshman year before the crash, and Madelynn, a Junior at Pitman, was involved with FFA and volleyball.
Pitman Cross Country and Track hopes to honor the memory of the Lourencos by raising money a fund to help families grieving from loss. We hope this 5 K and 2 mile run will be a time for remembrance and reflection on the Lourenco family as well as a time to honor the memory of others we have lost.
