I did not know this young man, but I am wowed by his selfless heroism! I just found how he donated his organs in order to help others! May we all strive to be like Keegan! Eternal rest grant unto him, oh Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul rest in peace. May the angels welcome him into paradise and may God continue to be with and comfort his family! Amen
