Donated the gift of life today ... Man it was hard.

54 is very young. Always tragic when someone we care about passes but especially when there should, by rights, be plenty of living left to do. Hang in there, and my condolences to everyone directly affected.
 
Thank You to All. The prayers are most welcome and appreciated.

Remember you too can be an organ doner. Please consider signing up on your next license renewal. Make sure your family knows and understands the importance of this gift of life.

Bill.
 

I'm a confirmed Organ Donor , come on Rocketeers lets all do it, Bills story should be an example for all of us.
 
This young man was a donor at a tender young age, he was my hero and broke my heart. In the end good came from tragedy.
