It's now more than 15 years since Allan's beautiful daughter Zaidee, 7, a student at Orrvale Primary School, died following a brain aneurism.

Somehow Allan's wife Kim had the bravery to remember that Zaidee had said she would donate her organs, so that's what Allan and Kim did, allowing several others to live.

The foundation remains true to its original mission of raising awareness of organ donation, chiefly through the sale of the now iconic rainbow laces.

Terri spoke to Allan as part of the Shepplife program on One FM.
