Out of tragedy has come hope in the case of slaughterman Steven Smart, from Hastings, shot dead during a mass cull.
His relatives have bravely put aside their own grief to make sure his death is not in vain.
Four people have been given the chance of a new life after receiving organs from Steven.
In another act of courage, Hove brothers Glen and Toby Mishon, set aside old hostilities to save a life.
Kickboxer Toby gave estate agent Glen a kidney when it transpired he needed a transplant.
There is a national shortage of organs for transplant and it is heartening to see that people can put aside grief and dispute when the chips are really down.
