UPTON – Corey Boucher didn’t see his stepfather as anything other than his father, and when leukemia killed 42-year-old John Florentine 17 years ago, Boucher took it hard. “He is the reason I am who I am today,” Boucher said, of Florentine. “What I’ve accomplished and how I carry myself is because of him.”Upton resident Boucher is one of more than 6,000 bicyclists – including 77 Greater Milford residents – who will ride the Pan-Mass Challenge Aug. 7 and 8. Boucher will ride 50 miles from Wellesley to Foxborough and back in one day. To find and donate to another rider, go to https://www.pmc.org/, and put the rider or team name into the search box.
