The Meredith Story Rotarian Tom Meredith, a native of Cleveland, Ohio moved to Nashville, Tennessee in 1979 with his wife Barbara and young sons Tommy and David. Tommy and David graduated from Father Ryan High School and Middle Tennessee State University with honors.
1991 - Barbara went on dialysis and on the UNOS waiting list for a kidney. 1993 - Barbara received kidney transplant from a deceased donor. 1996 - Her transplant was successful, and she was able to enjoy 25 months of healthy life before succumbing to medical complications. As a result of the Meredith family's decision for their sons to be organ and tissue donors, 97 people benefited from their unselfish and wonderful Gift of Life by extending life and enhancing life. Tom is now happily married to Mary Weber and resides in Brentwood, Tennessee.
