We thank you, the family and donors for the generosity of full body donation. An anatomical donation provides for advanced lifesaving medical training, education and research to the physicians and allied health professionals of Maryland. The quality of medical training and care provided by these professionals is significantly advanced by the commitment and dedication individuals show in donating themselves. On behalf of all those professionals, thank you.

Sincerely,



Juan Ortega
Director
