I'm a Life Kidney Donor who also happens to be a Firefighter for over 34 years & in doing so I've dealt with many life changing accidents. This lead me to share with my family & remind everyone your family know your intentions to be an organ donor. This real life story Tim Joos relives for us made me cry out loud... May God Comfort & Bless Them... What a powerful story...

Wow! was all I could say. One thing that I could say is that Samatha spirit will live on thru Organ and Tissue donation and to all who shares apart of her. She will always shine through the heat of the night till the bright of the morning thru her shinning spirit Star. May God continue to bless her family and her friends as they go thru this journey of Life. lg

Hey Scott... Lon Coleman from TRI-for-Life in Michigan. Great video. One of the best I have seen. Change the name and it can apply to so many families, mine included
