Peyton
“We just want to say thank you to Lions Eye Bank for helping us help our baby and to the families who donated corneas,” said Jimmy. “Because of their generosity, our family and Peyton are very fortunate. Thank you.”
Tony & Deborah
What do you say to someone when the death of their loved one gave you the amazing gift of sight? …In the end it was the tearful, silent embrace she shared with Gina Miller that said it all.
Silas Taylor
Adrie was a 17-year-old freshman at Central State University in Wilberforce, Ohio, when she more-or-less met Silas Taylor. Silas worked in the school cafeteria, and Adrie is fairly sure…
Robert Hodges
Through donation, Robert provided an incredible gift to others in a country where few are privileged to receive the precious gift of sight.
Michael Doherty, Jr.
Michael Doherty, Jr. was a caring, thoughtful, and outgoing person. He was especially passionate about motocross racing and his yellow GTO, the sight of which always put a smile on his face.
Mark Berkeland
“He was an avid reader, watched sports on TV, and loved to spend time on our property near Silver Bay where we planned to retire. It meant so much to him to pursue those activities, and he wanted to help others live equally full lives.” Mark was a tissue and eye donor, and both of his corneas were transplanted; so this good, good man continues to touch lives in a most meaningful way.
Heather Anne Everts
Her corneas that supported those beautiful green eyes were transplanted in to someone who had never seen the color green in their life. Even after her heart stopped beating, it kept on giving. I know that over two dozen people are now thankful that she was an organ donor. Someone now sees through her eyes. It must be beautiful.
