GAZIANTEP, TURKEY - MARCH 10: Reginald Green (R), father of Nicholas Green who was shot and killed in an attempted car robbery while vacationing with his family in Southern Italy, cries as he receives a carpet with his son picture on it, during a panel on World Kidney Day at Gaziantep University in Turkey's southeastern province Gaziantep on March 10, 2016. When Nicholas died, his parents chose to donate his organs and his father attends conferences to promote a network of organ donation around the world.

30 years later, a family’s loss gives life to others

For the Green family, the memory of Oct. 1, 1994, is many things at once: the date of their greatest pain and their finest hour; a day of unspeakable loss and life-giving gifts. It is the date their 7-year-old son, Nicholas, died. But seven people, five of them teenagers, received Nicholas’ organs, and his legacy continues to reverberate.
