In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to the Liver Transplant Program at New York Presbyterian Hospital. Transplantation is an important cause to us with mom (Hideko) having had a liver transplant and Jennifer having her organs harvested for a # of other families. Some families are better off right now b/c of Jenn's donations and that makes us feel better knowing her .
