MIGUEL’S STORY

MIGUEL CORTES was born on October 25, 1994 in California. He loved spending time with his family, dancing, riding horses, and being outdoors, enjoying nature. He had a six year old son who he adored more than anything. Miguel was riding his horse on the night of May 6 when he was hit by an SUV. After suffering from trauma injuries caused by the tragic accident, Miguel died on May 12, 2022 in Riverside, CA. He was doing what he loved most, taking a night stroll with his horse. He enjoyed traveling and his untimely death became his last trip, flying to heaven. His family finds comfort in knowing that Miguel was a registered donor. He gave the gift of life to others as an organ donor. His family is proud to know that a part of Miguel is still alive and bringing joy to three families, and they look forward to meeting Miguel’s recipients someday.
