Blood donation held in memory of Trevor Hamer

A blood donation was held in memory of Trevor Hamer, who was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2016.

The event was held in front of Hooters, where Hamer’s accident occurred four years ago.

His mother was in attendance, donating blood in his memory.

“It's a perfect way to honor my son, and keep his memory alive in our community,” his mother said. “It’s also a good way to spotlight the need for blood in our community, and we need a lot of blood right now.”

The Coastal Bend Blood Center hopes to bring this event to the area on a yearly basis.
