Alandale
Insurance Agency has always been proud of its
contributions to the community, but never did
they imagine those contributions would include
donating organs.
Tricia
Townsend has been with Alandale Insurance for
9 years. She is currently the agency's
Personal Lines Manager. She has always
been dedicated to the company, and also to her
family and friends. This past November,
Tricia was told that a family member was
having kidney failure and was in dire need of
a kidney transplant.
Without being
asked, Tricia volunteered to get tested as a
donor for Anita Jordan. After
going through all of the necessary tests
, Tricia was told by her doctors that she was
a perfect match for Anita. On Wednesday,
April 5th, Tricia left California
to travel to Chicago to begin preparations for
the transplant. The surgery took place
on Friday, April 7th, with both
Anita and Tricia's families and friends by
their sides. The surgery proved
successful and Anita is understandably very
grateful for Tricia. She knows that they
will be forever connected. Tricia is an
inspiration to both Anita’s family, and her
own as well as us here at Alandale.
