And after more than two years since Blair’s passing, the victim’s family met with the transplant recipient on what would have been Blair’s 20 birthday.
Blair’s sister, Broen, told KDFX that even though she tragically lost her brother in a car accident, something good was able to come from it.
“It’s been a little over two years since we lost him, but it’s also been two years since we gained a lot of family and knowing that, it kinda fills my heart up in a place that Shon loved.”
