10/16/1944 - 01/25/2000 Kansas City, MO My husband, Charles Schulz, was a career Air Force pilot, a Colonel, and an expert about eagles. Because Chuck loved flying and eagles, his quilt square has a prominent eagle to honor him and his gift. Until he died suddenly, leaving four children and three grandchildren, we didn’t know that he would be an organ donor. Donating to 50+ people allowed our family’s anguish to have a thankful side. God’s great gift of life,... |

It was 13 years ago when Doug had the wreck. Doesn’t seem that long, seems only yesterday. I miss his smile and his jokes. He could always make me laugh when I was sad or worried about something. He was with me when his Dad passed away. Couldn’t have made it without him. Now his brother has cancer. Wished he was here to complete me.
Mrs. Eva (Hughes) Howell
Doug's mother

1938 - 1999
Larry passed away unexpectedly of heart failure on Dec. 21, 1999. Although it was the most painful holiday season ever for me, as his wife, and also for my family, our faith gave us the assurance that he was with God. We are grateful that his tissue and cornea donation helped others to have better lives. Larry had made the decision to be a donor long before his death, so it was comforting to know that we were following his wishes.
Larry, you still live in the hearts of your family.

This patch represents the unlimited potential of a mentally handicapped individual to succeed in life and to make a difference in the world. Robbie’s world included working at Gambino’s Pizza, fishing, horseback riding and making friends. A mentally handicapped person wants the same things as everybody else, to be treated with respect, to be treated as equal. Let this patch open our eyes to those we may see as different, to know that they are the same. In life, Robbie gave his all. In death,...

The Donor Memorial Quilt means so much to our family. We entitled it “Angel Watching Over Us.” Bruce was never acquainted with his daughter, Brittany Elaine Atkinson, born after his death, or Tommy Warren, recipient of Bruce’s right kidney.
A friend of the family, Edward Jackson, from Houston Texas, collaged this picture on the patch from separate photographs. We are deeply indebted to him for his creative abilities....
