Paul is a retired firefighter and paramedic. His message is very clear: Registering as an organ and tissue donor can make a significant impact on many lives, including the ones you leave behind.
His commitment to promoting organ and tissue donation is deeply personal. His daughter Barbara, whom he lovingly calls Barbie, passed away in 2005. He and Barbie’s mother made the decision to authorize the donation of Barbie’s liver and kidneys to help others.
“I know that they did everything they could to save her life and for that I am eternally grateful,” he says, remembering his daughter as a vibrant and caring young woman. 💓
