Teri Sue Parker, who is known to us as the founder of the "Good Samaritan Community Food Pantry" in Temecula and is recently widowed -- RIP Bruce. She will be talking about her very raw and personal experience with organ donation.

Teri Sue has fed hundreds of isolated seniors, cancer patients, wounded veterans, and families at risk. Her service was noticed by California Assembly member of the 75 th district Marie Walden, who recognized her as being a COVID-19 Community hero. Now officially a non-profit organization, “Good Samaritan Community Food Pantry" serves the isolated seniors, and families at risk. She launched a successful adopt a senior and family program, for Thanksgiving and Christmas. This program has contributed a new spark of love within Temecula Valley.
