This Veterans Day, we take special time to remember the many veterans who served in the U.S. military and later became organ, eye and tissue donors. Michael J. Harvey, F. John "Jack" Debus, Jesse E. Smith, David L. Buonamici, and Scott E. Lewis are a few of those donors who have been recognized as ConnectLife heroes of the month. We honor their legacy and the service of all veterans.

Eye Donation Month 2025 is centered on the theme, “Everyday Heroes.” This emphasizes the fact that nearly anyone has the potential to be a cornea donor – everyday individuals have the ability to be a hero by registering as a donor and giving the life-transforming power of restored sight.
A person can become a cornea donor regardless of vision, age, race, religion, or blood type.

Shawn’s Heroes for Life
Shawn J. McMullen was a son, a brother, a friend, a 19 Delta Cavalry Scout in the U.S. Army, and ultimately, an organ donor. A courageous and caring man, he worked to comfort and help others. Even while battling his own injuries, Shawn volunteered his time assisting elderly veterans and providing comfort to hospitalized infants.
In September 2015, Shawn became a hero to many, when his selfless act of organ donation gave the Gift of Life to five people. Through corneal donations, Shawn additionally provided two others the opportunity to see again.
The non-profit organization Shawn's Heroes for Life continues his legacy by honoring and enhancing the lives of veterans and those in need, and by increasing organ donation awareness.
As Shawn’s family and friends mark 10 years since his passing, they have planned several special events.
Their 9th annual memorial blood drive with ConnectLife will take place Saturday, November 8 from 9 a.m.-2 p.m. at 100 College Pkwy., Williamsville, NY 14221. Whole blood and double red cell donation appointments are available.
The Shawn’s Heroes for Life 9th annual fundraiser will be Sunday, November 9 from 12:30-4:40 p.m. in the Reikart House ballroom on Main Street in Amherst. The event will include a Buffalo Bills viewing party.
