NATIONAL DONATE LIFE MONTH-MARYLAND - HEATHER ANN RICCI MEMORIAL GOLF OUTING, APRIL 26, 2010
After their daughter, Heather, lost her life in a tragic auto accident on her 10th Birthday in August 2001, Louis and Kim Ricci were determined to do something positive in her memory. They chose to donate five of Heather's organs (her heart, lungs, liver, and both kidneys) to five other individuals who were in desperate need. As a result, five individuals are living happy, healthier lives from Heather's Gift of Life.
The Ricci Family has set up a memorial fund in their daughter's honor. Each year, since 2004, it sponsors the Heather Ann Ricci Memorial Golf Outing. Proceeds for this event are donated to The Living Legacy Foundation.
This year the event will be held on April 26, 2010 at Bulle Rock Golf Course in Hartford County, MD. For more information please visit http://www.heatherriccifund.org.
