Cheryl Jeffers
Organ Donor
/June 28, 2025
Momma left us June 2025. She was a wonderful mom and nana, and we were very privileged to have her for the time we did. Having been a family on the receiving end of organ donation twice, I knew Momma would be more than willing to donate to help other people live. By doing so, she saved four other people. Mom, I miss you more than you could imagine and hate not having you here with us. We miss you daily.
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.
