WHAT: St. Luke’s is honoring organ donors who have given the gift of life with a re-dedication ceremony of its Wall of Heroes memorial. The ceremony is a way to honor new organ donors for their generous gifts of life and sight. Photos of organ donors are displayed near the Wall of Heroes, which is a hand-carved display with a tree featuring unique stained glass leaves. The leaves represent donors and their generous gifts of life and sight. The memorial was created by St. Luke’s Intensive Care Unit Nurses Pete Boyechko, David Johnson and Jeremy Nelson.
