In Memory of

Connell Rodden

In loving memory of Connell Rodden who loved, laughed and lived a full life. Connell fought a long and hard battle for 7 years after a double lung transplant. He always had a smile on his face and made everyone laugh despite the trials he faced. His courage was second to none. His wife’s love and devotion kept him going. He is forever in our hearts and missed every second of every day by his loving wife, Carol, his brother Jim, his 3 children, 2 grandchildren, family and friends.

Mark Meade

Mark and Terry Meade are inspirations. We are so blessed to have met them at the Rose Parade Donate Life Float and felt an immediate connection with them. They later welcomed us into their home and joined us in NYC for Broadway shows. We are blessed to call them friends and will miss Mark terribly. Terry, we love you!!

IN HONOR OF

Mark Meade

Mark was a special man. A good friend for over 65 years, from junior high until this past Monday, July 2nd when he passed. After a heart transplant he dedicated his life, along with his wife Terry, to the New Jersey Gift of Life. I never forget the honor he received to ride on the Rose Bowl float and add special roses on that float. We live in SoCal and it was a fun time with the Meades and the parade. Mark will be missed by my wife and myself until our turn to pass. God bless Terry and the whole Meade family. Rest in Peace friend.

In Memory Of

Kassie Hagan DiGiorgio Vannoy

In lieu of wedding favors at our wedding on October 8, 2021, my fiancé and I made a donation in memory of my mother who passed away in 2005. In October 2012, for her 50th birthday, my family raised $25,000 for Gift of Life Howie’s House to help underwrite room 310. Organ donation is near and dear to our hearts from both giving and receiving. I couldn’t think of a better way to honor my mom on my wedding day!
