Donor Tributes

She was such a giving child and incredibly others-centered. Her legacy will shine bright in “Taylor’s Place,” a special space to care for donor families.

Maddie was a a competitive gymnast and volunteer—a big spirit with a servant’s heart.

She helped anyone who had a problem. As an only child with 4 grandparents she had many toys which she always shared. Being an eye, organ, and tissue donor was a given.

Sarah loved life and the great outdoors and was very compassionate.

Alex was a vibrant, charismatic, talented young man who was the first to help others.

My son was an amazing father and hard-working business owner.

The greatest hero I never knew was my organ donor, Courtney Ray Sterling who saved my life.

Our boy left a lasting legacy because he lived so fully in his time here and in his decision to donate life. We are so very proud of him! We love you forever Joe, Mom, Dad and Trippie.

Dec 2019 he gave all he could to allow life to continue even after his could not. I’m proud of my Organ Donor Hero! #LUKASLIVES

Our dear sweet, loving, selfless mother passed away January 20, 2020 at age 66 from heart failure unexpectedly. You are a brave and amazing woman. Your gift will go on living and help numerous of people.

My tribute is for my wife Michele. On June 13, 2019 she donated a part of her liver to a baby she didn’t know named Summer Laforme. My wife has a huge heart and has since become an advocate for living organ donation.

A true family love story.
