Lifeline of Ohio Candlelight Vigil

On April 11, 2010, Lifeline of Ohio attempted the Guiness World Record for most candles lit simultaneously in a single venue in an effort to shed light on the need for organ and tissue donors. The attempt was part of Lifeline’s annual Candlelight Vigil of Hope, Remembrance and Celebration.

While in Columbus for the event, my parents took a walk over to Lifeline’s Donor Memorial Park to see the brick they made for Neal. We had to be creative to fit in everything we wanted to say. “Kuya” is a Filipino term that is used as a sign of respect to an older male relative, such as a brother.
