June 8, 2016 was the couple's sixth wedding anniversary. Wang held a party at Osbrone's sickbed at the Intensive Care Unit in the hospital.

"I hope our friends can make a farewell to Mark on this memorial day," said Wang with smile always on her face at the party though silent tears came from the corners of her eyes from time to time.

According to Wang, Osborne was not unfamiliar with organ donation. His mother received a heart transplantation operation from a donor and lived for ten more years. His family believes that they should return the favor by donating organs to others.

When Wang made the decision to donate, Osborne's family was very supportive and delivered all the files that donation required immediately. Wang signed on the organ donation registration form for Osborne and herself on June 29. She plans to help others in the way her husband did.

"He told me that if he dies, he wishes to die in China," said Wang. Osborne prolonged his life in this way in his beloved land.

Until yesterday, four organ transplantations were underway thanks to Osborne's donation. The waiting time of four patients ranges from half a year to two years and their average age is 48 years old.
