Twelve people were honored by the American Red Cross for displaying tremendous acts of kindness and selflessness.
"For me, this recognition goes to all God's challenges, and heroes of healing peace, and comfort in our families, places of worship and society," said Father Hernan Cuevas Contreras, a Red Cross Hero Award recipient.
He was honored on Thursday with Yvonne Blake whose son, 20-year-old Jayden, an avid blood donor, was killed in a car accident last year. He needed dozens of units of blood to keep him alive. Fighting as hard as he could, he passed away a week later, and his mom now honors his legacy of helping others when they need it most.
