Rocky Blevins
Organ Donor
/December 31, 2024
I firmly believe in organ donation – so did my sweetheart. We were married 45 years, and he was taken from me unexpectedly, but I know, without a doubt, he is in the arms of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He got a brand new body just like the Bible promised. He no longer needed to go into eternity with all of the precious organs that stayed here and helped many people. Like Rocky said: “I won’t need them anymore. When I die, I pray that someone else will benefit from my donation. That’s what a loving, giving, precious person does.” Rocky lives on in other people now, and that gives me great comfort.
