RJ Harris
Organ Donor
/May 30, 2025
RJ was (and still is) the love of my life! He was 59 years old, and we were married for 38 years. He was such a good person at heart! He was in kidney failure and was on the donor list himself; however, he did not make it to receive a kidney. He was able to bless someone with his liver! I thank God for him! I love and miss him so much! Thank you, RJ!
Saying thank you
Many donor families find that corresponding with the transplant recipient or recipients can be a powerful experience. Donor families can take comfort in sharing stories and sending well wishes to those who live on because of their loved one.
Should you choose to connect, we're here to help. Letters and cards can be a tremendous gift to both the donor families and recipients. To protect everyone, we provide guidelines for communication. Names remain confidential unless both parties agree to share those with one another, and we provide a correspondence address. We are happy to share sample letters to help you get started.
For more information about corresponding with recipients, please call us at 615-564-3649.
