Anna Elizabeth Wells, 18, died June 25th at OU Medical Center, after sustained on life support two days awaiting surgery for organ donation. She was struck Saturday evening while riding her bicycle. Anna made the decision earlier this year to be an organ donor and though we grieve losing her, we’re thankful that in death she remained consistent in her strong value of giving just as she had throughout her lifetime.
