Longtime Lawrenceburg Resident in Need of Heart Transplant

Community members can help through a GoFundMe

(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) - A GoFundMe has been launched to support a Lawrenceburg man who needs a heart transplant. 

After spending nearly three weeks in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Edgewood, Danny Courter learned in September that he needs a heart transplant. 

Courter has been referred to Vanderbilt University Medical Center. He is set to travel to Nashville this week to begin the extensive testing and evaluation process to determine the next steps toward a possible heart transplant.

Courter, a longtime employee of BPI, is retired. His wife is too. The GoFundMe will help with travel expenses, gas, meals, and potentially extended hotel stays. 

"My dad has spent so many years giving back to his community, and now we’re asking that same community to rally around him," said his daughter, Brittany. "We completely understand that not everyone is in a position to donate, and that is absolutely okay. Even simply sharing his GoFundMe could help his story reach someone who is able to help. Every donation, every share, and every prayer means more to our family than words can express."
