Dear Ed
At a time like this, there are just no words to express the depth of our sympathy for you and your family. It is truly selfless for Quentin's parents to consider the needs of others with organ donations, such a difficult decision I'm sure. I hope you find some comfort in the hugs and prayers being sent by your many TOTV friends.

Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts, it means more than you can ever know. Your prayers were not in vain, as God just decided he needed a young, strong, handsome, and loving fishing buddy. Q as we have called him from the beginning is a true hero. His decision when he got his drivers license a little over a year ago, was to check the box as an organ donor. He actually showed me the license proudly pointing out the fact he could be a donor. None of us in our worst nightmares could have imagined that would become a reality, but it has, and I am proud to be his "Popeye". He will help about eight other families who are suffering to get blessed relief. He is my hero and my blessed angel. Hug your loved ones a little tighter this week for Q.

Ed, I wish there were words to help. There just aren't. I cannot imagine the pain you and your family are feeling. In the time I've known you here, you've proven to be a kind and caring person. I know you passed that on and that's probably the reason someone so young was thinking ahead to being an organ donor. It will truly make life better or even possible for several people.

You are in my heart and in my wishes for a better future tonight.

Dave

Thank you for your prayers and those of your church. We felt each and every one, and while our hearts are broken we have the peace and strength we need to get through this. Q was a special kid and I wish everyone had the great good fortune to know him and be touched by him.
