About Larnell

Larnell Bruce Jr., known lovingly as “Man Man” to family and friends, was born September 1, 1996. He had an unmistakable passion and energy for life. 

​

Larnell was a beloved son, grandson, brother, nephew, uncle, and friend, who loved his family deeply. His life was cut short due to a senseless, racially-motivated hate crime.

​

His death was a tragedy, but his decision to be an organ donor brought pride to his family. His final act of giving saved five people and created new champions for organ donation.
