2024 Donor Celebration Service

On September 28, 2024, MERI got together with donor families, most of their community partners, and vital members of the medical community for the yearly Donor Celebration Service, which is a moment we take every year to honor those who gave the ultimate gift of whole body donation, and to show our deep appreciation to the families who carried their loved one’s wishes forward.

MERI is humbled by the generosity of every single donor who chose to help move medical science forward through whole body donation. Their selflessness will not only benefit physicians and healthcare professionals who train at MERI’s Memphis facility, but will fully benefit the patients those professionals will serve for the upcoming years, and the generation of medical learners who will follow.

This gift compounds over time, and one that the entire MERI and Genesis team holds with deep gratitude and care.

The 2024 celebration was only possible through the financial support of several important community sponsors, including Beacon Pointe Advisors, Global Security Services LLC, Hot Graphics Printing, MidSouth Solutions LLC, OSB Enterprises, and ProAd Inc.

A special thanks goes ot the funeral home partner Mid South Mortuary Service, whose help ensures that every single donor and family is treated with all of the respect, dignity, and care they deserve, from start to end.

To every single donor honored at this year’s celebration, and to every family in attendance, thank you. Your loved one’s legacy will continue to live on for years to come.
