Bride Walked Down The Aisle By The Stranger Who Received Her Dad's Heart As A Donation

Arthur fondly known as 'Tom', traveled from New Jersey to Pennsylvania to walk Jeni down the aisle, since her father couldn’t be there.

Jeni met Tom for the first time on the eve of her wedding, when she felt her father’s heart beat for the first time in 10years.

Micheal Stephen was murdered in Swissvale back in 2006, Tom received Micheal's heart after his death.

'I was on death's door when he was murdered and I needed a heart or I was going to be dying in the next few days.' Thomas said

Both families kept in touch through letters and phone calls over the years but it wasn't until they started planning Jeni Stephen wedding that she saw the perfect chance for them to meet, as she asked him in a letter,if he would do the donor.

Tom's answer was Yes. She met him for the  first time on Friday.

"Meeting Tom was so incredible" she said.'He is such a gracious and kindhearted man.You could tell, that he was so thankful for his life and that radiated from him.'
