The Heart of a Tiger

Jonathan Perry grew up an LSU fan with one rivalry standing out above all others.

"In my eyes, growing up, Auburn was just a huge rival," says Perry. "Especially the years Alabama wasn't good, it was always Auburn. The games have always been great.

"Now, it's different."

Everything changed for Perry when his son, John Clarke, passed away at six months old. Before his son's death, Perry had never thought about organ donation. But since his son's heart was donated to Davis Boswell – born, like his parents, an Auburn fan – it's his mission in life to spread the word about its power to heal in all directions.
