April 17, 2013 — Restaurants across Boston planned fundraising events Wednesday night to benefit victims of the Boston Marathon attack and their families — including some of their own.
The two bombings near the finish line of the Boston Marathon killed three and injured more than 180 people who were packed into the city’s Back Bay neighborhood Monday for the race.
Among those killed was 29-year-old Krystle Campbell, a former catering operations manager at Jasper White’s Summer Shack, who had worked for the chain for nine years at various locations. About six months ago she was hired by Jimmy’s Steer House in Arlington Heights, Mass., where she worked as an assistant dining room manager.
Jeff Dugan, partner and director of operations for Summer Shack parent Shack Foods of America, said his assistant Karen Rand was with Campbell at the race and was seriously wounded, but was in stable condition in the hospital on Wednesday.
