Richard Jean Rj Lang Jr, Donor

RJ was a very shy young man. He was my only child. I lost him when he was just 20 years old. He passed away while I was at work. The day he passed, Donor Network of Arizona called and asked if I would consider donating his organs. Without hesitation, I said yes. RJ’s gift helped 23 people in 10 states. Thank God that he lives on in others and helped improve their lives.

I have never met RJ, but he is always in my heart, as is his mother Susan. She has a powerful and loving story. In what is sure to be the hardest time in her life she chose to find love and make her son a hero to so many. Her work to spread his story always mives me.
She chose to help people like me gain mobility again.
I am a tissue recipient, one of the same types of tissue gifted by Susan and RJ. While I do not know who my donor was I am honored to claim RJ and Sunan as my donor and donor family. They will both be a part of me and my life forever.

I am a friend of RJ’s Mom Susan, I only met RJ once, but I remember that he was a quiet, yet friendly young man. What a wonderful gift he has provided to others.

He was a gentle soul. I know this is what he would have wanted.
