The family of a young man from the west metro who died suddenly last fall just met the person whose life he saved through organ donation.
Jonathan Souvannalath, a 25-year-old from Chanhassen, suffered a severe asthma attack in September, was rushed to the hospital and died a few days later.
His family said they decided to donate his organs because his life mission was to serve others. Souvannalath worked as a drug and alcohol counselor, helping people through struggles he had personally faced earlier in life. He battled heroin addiction before getting sober in 2017.
