TJ was a 30 year old husband, father,  brother, and son.  At the time of his death, he was a high school athletic director.  TJ will be remembered for his boisterous laugh, contagious personality, and ability to make a connection with everyone he met.   TJ’s joy and love of life was infectious.  His life revolved around his immediate family, high school sports, the Cleveland Indians, and the Cleveland Browns.  TJ was on his way to school to get ready for a track meet when his vehicle was struck by a driver who ran a stop sign.  It was later determined he was killed instantly upon impact.  At the time of the accident, TJ was an amazing husband and the father to one son with another on the way to be born six weeks later.  At the age of 16, TJ made the choice to become an organ donor, a decision his wife proudly honored at his untimely and tragic death.  His selfless donation impacted, and continues to impact, the lives of five people.  It is through his family, community memorials, and organ recipients that his legacy continues and TJ continues to live on and be among us.  He will always be missed, remembered, and loved.
