Benton Foster
Organ Donor
/October 16, 2017
In 2015, Benton came downstairs and said he had registered to be an Organ Donor. He was 23. I was a Paramedic and his mom was a RN and he had heard us talk a lot about organ donation. I asked him why he decided to register. “Well someday if I can’t live, maybe someone else can,” he said. October 15, 2017, he died from a brain aneurysm. In his death, he save 4 peoples lives.
