In memory

In memory . . . . . . of a life so beautifully lived . . . . a Heart so deeply loved.

Jeffrey Wayne Hedrick, Transplant Recipient, Donate Life Community Member, Canyon Lake, CA 1952 - 2011



Jeffrey Wayne Hedrick passed Saturday, June 25 at his home in Canyon Lake.

Jeff waited five years for a new liver, which he received in 2004

He finally received and was able to meet the parents of his donor. Hedrick was so moved by the experience that he quit his job in insurance and joined OneLegacy, the Los Angeles based organ procurement organization as hospital services coordinator for the Inland area.

"I am here only because of families like yours who said yes to donation at the worst times of your life," Hedrick said. "You are all heroes to us at OneLegacy."

Jeff was passionate to the mission of helping those on the transplant wait-list and will be missed by his family, friends and colleagues.
