Samantha Wibberding's heart, kidneys, other organs gave recipients a chance at a longer, fuller life.
She was good with farm equipment; in fact, her dad Bill called her "tractor girl." She drove pieces of the family's farm equipment in the annual Ag Appreciation Parade.
Then she ran into some romantic problems that got too big for her to handle, and in March she ended her life, according to her father. But that wasn't the end of her story.
At the hospital the family was asked if they would consider donating some of her organs, Bill Wibberding said. Samantha and her dad had been donating blood during the previous year. She was almost up to a gallon, he said, and the family agreed to organ donation.
