Laci Taquino
Laci’s Mom and Dad discussed conversations like these that they had had with Laci and decided to honor her wish.
Bobby Champagne
“Bobby loved being everyone's hero. He was always saving someone. We had known him to truly give someone the shirt off his back if he felt the person needed it.“
Jason Moody
“I don't understand why Jason was taken away from us, but I do know that God took away a very good Christian young man and that he needed him more than how we needed him here.“
Katie and Melanie Moore
One family member recalls Melanie saying that the one thing which helped her through her grief was the knowledge that Katie’s organs were giving life back to others.
Devan Leger
Christie and Roger, Devan's parents, began to think of other parents like them for whom doctors could do nothing more because only an organ could save their child's life.
Garrett Fontenot
“To be able to enable another family to finish what God has intended for them to do on earth is a gift you can give by being an organ donor.“
Robyn Doiron
“Because of Robyn's generosity and unselfish act of love, five people are blessed to still be with their families today.“
Kelly Thrash
“I am so proud that my son was so full of life and love that he was able to share himself with others and I want to share his story.“
Travis Rhodes
“Somehow, hopefully, I can make others see the difference when we say yes to organ and tissue donation.”
Ryan Viator
“Oh the places Ryan dreamed of going and, even in death, he is accomplishing more than he could’ve ever imagined!“
Matthew Trahan
“I wanted you to know that he would be honored that his death helped in some way.”
Justin Harrison
“Justin Harrison saved the lives of five people in 1997, when he was 15 years old. He did it without fanfare, through an act of quiet heroism.”
Ryan Scott Cart
“You cannot say yes to organ and tissue donation without it having a positive impact on your life and the lives of those around you.“
