Honoring the gifts of older community members Resilience and strength are often developed through experiencing the successes, failures, joys, and difficulties life has to offer. To recognize the individuals who built have built our communities, Adair County is recognizing May as Older Americans Month in partnership with the Kentucky Circuit Clerks' Trust For Life and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Everyone, regardless of age, is welcome to join the Kentucky Organ Donor Registry. Craig Kingsbury is a perfect example of an everlasting legacy. Long before Craig's cancer diagnosis and complications, he registered as an organ, eye, and tissue donor while renewing his driver's license in Jefferson County. When he passed away in 2016, his wishes were fulfilled, and he became a cornea and tissue donor. "While Craig will always live on in the hearts of his family and friends, there is added comfort and joy knowing that he physically lives on in the cornea recipients," Tina Kingsbury, Craig's wife said. Because of Craig said 'yes' to joining the registry, he continues to inspire others. This May we not only celebrate the strength of older community members but thank them for continued generosity. "Connecting with others is vitally important as time passes. From finding joy in small things and sharing our stories, to looking at the big picture and giving to others, join Adair County in registering as an organ, eye, and tissue donor," said Dennis Loy, Adair County Circuit Court Clerk. Join the Kentucky Organ Donor Registry in one of the following ways:
The Kentucky Circuit Court Clerks' Trust For Life (TFL) is a 501c(3) non-profit organization that informs, educates, and encourages Kentuckians to be registered organ & tissue donors to save lives. TFL was founded in 1992 as the charitable arm of the Kentucky Association of Circuit Court Clerks. The dollar donations at driver's license counters and other philanthropic partners, including KODA, Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, and Kosair Charities, fund the statewide community outreach & public relations efforts to grow the Registry.
