Terence Derrick II
Organ Donor
/September 15, 2022
Terence’s left kidney saved the life of a woman in her mid-sixties, his right kidney saved the life of a man in his late sixties. His liver saved the life of a woman in her early thirties.
Terence was a father of three precious children and to know that his organ donations saved three individuals is humbling.
Long Live Terence!!!!
